This is a nice rear view of the right side. It is impossible to capture the “feel” if the diorama as a whole in photographs. A sawmill complex is truly the sum of its parts and this kit includes so many details. The various small stacks in this shot are outlets for excessive steam.
The left rear includes the transfer table and sorting platform. The large pile of discarded cut “cants” is a great touch and one easily modeled. The comprehensive instructions provides detailed information on how I created this realistic scene.
The main cutting floor with those wicked double blades. The saw carriage is also visible as it travels back and forth along its track.
The rear of the donkey engine and shed on the platform. You may notice the large square water tank must have just been filled as it has leaked a bit. Be sure and visit the map on the main sawmill page. It contains views not shown in this 360 degree photo album tour.
One last view of the unloading platform!
