Welcome To The Florida Woodsmith.
North-Central Florida's Premier Sawyer Service
With 20 years experience woodworking in the Gainesville area, I fully understand how hard and costly it can be to find good artisan quality hardwoods without paying the outrageous prices of special ordering from the national chain stores.
That's why I founded the The Florida Woodsmith and set out to create a company that would become the premier sawyer service in Gainesville and the surrounding area. Do you have a tree down, or one scheduled to come down? Contact me today and I’ll process that tree into lumber or firewood to meet your needs. |

Custom MillingHate the idea of that old tree being just hacked up for firewood? The Florida Woodsmith is primarily a sawmill service. I can come to your property and collect that log and return it as quality lumber cut to your specifications. I can custom cut lumber or slabs from your fallen or service felled trees, or from my supply of locally sourced and sustainably harvested logs. Have a project in mind? I'll do my best to cut your log to your exact needs. A single tree will usually yield enough lumber for most projects.
After milling, I’ll walk you through properly drying your lumber to help you get the best yield, for the lowest cost. |

I’m proud to announce the addition of an Idry Vacuum Kiln to increase production to a new level.
By utilizing a vacuum, the idry reduces the boiling temperature of water to about 150°, while ramping up temperatures to 160°.
This revolutionary process writes the physics of drying lumber to sidestep safe drying limits while reducing drying defect free lumber. The iDry boasts some of the shortest drytimes in the industry, just a few weeks.
