RIGID 4-POST CARRIAGE FRAME: SUPERIOR STABILITY MEANS EVEN CUTTING. Stop worrying about bounce, sag and sway. All Norwood bandmills use a 4-post carriage structure. This means better sawhead stability for even, accurate cutting. Norwood’s mills don’t stop there. 2½” tubular steel rear vertical supports fortify the mill. And precision-extruded guides deliver smooth sawhead operation. Run your Norwood confident the rigid carriage frame will give you accurate cuts. BEWARE of sag and sway seen on other mills where the sawhead is cantilevered on one side or perched on only two posts.

UNLIMITED LENGTH: KEEP YOUR OPTIONS OPEN TO SAW LONGER. Every Norwood bandmill has a standard 16-foot (4.8 m) log deck so you can cut up to 13-feet (4m) long depending on the model. But you don’t need to stop there. Add one, or several, optional 4-foot (1.2 m) extensions to saw longer.* Some Norwood owners are sawing logs over 40 feet (12.1 m)! … Imagine the possibilities! 14 * Limit of one permanent 4-foot (1.2m) log deck extension on trailer-equipped models
