Custom Cutting
Custom Cutting is a specialty at Damstrom Log and Timber Homes. DLTH can accommodate
all your log and timber needs, whether a few beams, a whole-house package or timbers
of unusual dimensions - just bring us your plans. We will fill your order from the
very best mature Ponderosa Pine, Western Larch, or Douglas Fir logs.
At DLTH, we rely on the proven cutting effectiveness of our LT40HD Wood-Mizer bandsaw
mill to custom cut products ranging from 1" boards to 25"x25" posts and beams, up to 32'
in length.

Kiln Drying
Our wood-fired Kiln Drying service provides DLTH clients with the very best in finish
product dimension control. To minimize checking and shrinkage, Damstrom kiln dries each
interior wood package. If stability is important to your project, bring your wood in for
custom drying, especially if you purchased it green from local mills.
Bob Damstrom's boiler for the kiln burns the wood waste generated from his sawmill
operation. DLTH's kiln, 32' in length, has a drying capacity of 5,000BF. The boiler
also heats two homes and a hot tub. When buying from DLTH, you know that your home
or project will not add to landfill waste.
"Bob Damstrom has built what is arguably the finest homemade kiln I have ever seen,
the sheer genius of his system makes it look simple to build your own. One look at
this kiln and I think you will agree that it is one of the finest kilns anywhere"
