The Great Portable Sawmill Shootout
 
 
Since it's inception in 1999, the Great Portable Sawmill Shootout has been a highlight on everyone's calendar each year.

The Shootout originally pitted bandsaws, circle saws and chain saw mills against one another in a race for the fastest cut. While the competition aspect has been removed, cutting times and lumber recovery is still recorded. It remains a great way to see a range of portable sawmills cutting side by side, where you can easily compare the merits of each machine.

1st Place, Under $10,000 Division at the 2001 Shootout  
Peterson Portable Sawmills have been involved since the first shootout, with our greatest success coming in 2002, winning the Under $10,000 Division.
