milling market

[Shaun Moore]

I am just getting started into milling but not sure how to market the lumber? Its osage orange hedge, non thorny locust, oak and eastern red cedar. I know the hedge is great longbow material also but i dont know anyone who builds them just wondering if there is a place to look online that may have some leads for me! thanks and god bless

I don't know much about conventional lumber markets, but there's good money in some of the niche markets.

If you can carve out your territory, there's ways to make some $$.

Wood blanks are sold on eBay all the time. Try searching there to see if it may be a good solution for you.

Thank you both. I appreciate your time and responses

Search on Craigslist for slab wood for sale and call and ask them if they are a purchaser of milled lumber. I called someone and they said they had no interest unless it had been dried.
