Storm Goretti.
Cornwall has tons of timber on the ground.

Storms don’t destroy value -
Systems do.

We’ve seen this before. After storm damage at @benmorebotanicgarden fallen trees weren’t written off, they were milled locally.
Used locally.
As god ...intended.
Kept in the communities that nurtured them.

Cornwall has the same choice.

You can bring in a mobile sawmill and convert storm damaged trees into anything, whilst keeping long term value.

The best situation. You take that full independence by owning the ability yourself.

@petersonsawmills is my choice.
Onsite conversion. Can handle absolutely anything you throw at it and more importantly nobody waits for permission.

Storm Goretti isn’t the problem.
What happens next decides everything.

DM for mobile sawmilling.
DM to explore owning your own mill.

Ciao!

6 things I want to achieve in 2026.

Others want to eat healthy, drink less blah blah blah…

I just want to irritate Tom, mill timber and eat home grown sausages 😂

#2026

Scotlands local sawmilling capacity has quietly disappeared over the last decade.

When sawmills close,
timber leaves unprocessed,
value leaves rural communities,
decisions move further away.

That’s the gap that local mills are now stepping into.

...Smaller.
Onsite.
Community led.

We wont replace what was lost overnight but we can rebuild processing where trees actually grow.

Local timber doesn’t fail on its own.
It fails when systems around it are removed.

The question isn’t whether Scotland can rebuild local sawmilling.

It’s whether we choose to.

Why do we keep telling each other what’s possible in forestry, timber and business?

Last year we craned an impossible 22.5ton sequoia and moved it across the peninsular.
I also imported the perfect sawmill during difficult timber tariffs and supply chains and now this sequoia is ...ready for its next life.

I watched a team change the landscape into a thriving timber yard in record time.

The differences wasn’t capital.
It wasn’t scale.

It was community.

Decentralised timber.
Local sawmilling.
People backing people.

That’s how real progress happens.

Scotland, Argyll and Bute, where our journey every year seems to start.

The home of now the largest mobile sawmill in the UK.

11 locations have been effected across Scotland with the fall of the National Timber Group. Potential of 200 jobs just one week before Christmas.
...
We made the decision to put the largest mobile sawmill in Argyll & Bute.

The amount of things I’m learning and how mobile sawmills will benefit everybody in the UK.

The Grantland southwest forestry show might be a success or complete flop.

I have a friend who is conveniently also my accountant, he continuously says that ‘I’m a gambler’ and I always contest this.

Farming is also gambling, business is also gambling, self employment is ...also a gamble.

The main thing is ‘are you enjoying yourself?’

I’m loving absolutely every single part of this sawmill journey weve embarked on.
