This is the power takeoff for an old sawmill that used to stand at this sight. Age has not yet been determined by myself. When I look at this image I wonder about the many beautifull sunups and sunsets the labourers of the day used to see. The cove across which the sun is setting is, at times, filled with caplin teaming on top of the water and rolling on the beach like a lazy silvery wave. On an evening such as this, it must have been a beauty to behold…............... Leo

Found these classic old blitz trucks at an old sawmill in Millfield Nsw. Since taking these images the trucks have been sold and or scrapped. Damn shame to see this sort of awesome machinery dissappearing.

A Tay River landmark. And I’ll make a confession. I floated in an inner tube with my camera in a waterproof pack to get this shot. It was worth it.

THE SUBJECT: / This old steam engine has not had a fire in her belly nor got up a good head of steam for may a day but even in her dilapidated state she has a presence in the peace and quiet of the reserve. / In her day she would have had a lot of work in supplying the locomotion to run saw mill machinery in the heyday of the logging era from the late 1800s to the early 1900s. / Unfortunately there were no identification plates left on this machine so I have no idea of who the manufacturer was but it was very probably built in England and reassembled on site in the bush. THE LOCATION: / This very old mechanical marvel was photographed at Dingo Tops, part of Tapin Tops National Park, way south west of Port Macquarie, NSW, Australia, on a slightly overcast autumn day. / Fuji S9600: RAW, f/4.5 @ 1/60sec, ISO80, High powered flash, Hand held. / S7RAW & Photoshop CS.

Sawmill Creek / Spans Saw Mill Creek near Hopewell Hill, just off Route 114, 5 km east of Riverside-Albert, Albert County, New Brunswick, Canada. Length 108 feet, built in 1905 (no longer is use) Canada’s Atlantic Province of New Brunswick is famous for it’s covered bridges, the longest covered bridge in the world is located in this province. There are 68 covered bridges left in the province. Some are still serving their intended purpose while others are no longer in service but stand as reminders of quieter, simpler times. / Why cover a bridge with a roof and boarded in sides? The cover protected the timbers from the rotting effects of sun and rain. A covered bridge has a life expectancy of 80 years or more while an uncovered bridge could only expect to be serviceable for 10 or 20 years. They proved to be a practical solution in this land of many rivers and streams and an abundant supply of timber.

This old horse drawn timber tram above Triplet Falls, still stands on the site of / Knotts No 1 Mill / The area surrounding Triplet Falls was once / home to Knotts No 1 sawmill. This mill was one / of the largest of the many timber mills that began / operation after the Colac-Beech Forest-Crowes / railway opened up the rugged and remote west / Otways in 1902. / The mill started in 1908 and was operated from / 1909, by a Melbourne timber merchant, G.W. / Knott. He sold it to the War Service Homes / Commission in 1920. / The mill processed over 3,600 tons of Mountain / Ash per year producing timber for the homes of / servicemen returning from World War One. / Now that the forest has reclaimed the site it is / hard to imagine the industry that was sustained / here for more than 20 years.

Shot with Nikon L18 at S Royalston MA you can see the remnants of a foundation of the Woolen Mill that was here which employed most of the community. For more History Details See here / “Benjamin Blanchard was the earliest user of the water power from Millers River at this point, and built the first saw-mill and the first grist-mill here, beginning about 1785. In 1795 Blanchard sold to Edward Cambridge, of Templeton, a strip of land 15 rods long and 3 rods wide, with privilege on Millers River, for a fulling mill. In 1812 “The Royalston Cotton and Wool Manufacturing Company” was incorporated, with 8 members named. The company erected a mill on the site of the present woolen mill, but it is stated that the business was not successful, and about 1825 the concern fell into the hands of Silas Coffin and Rufus Bullock. The buildings were burned in 1833, and Rufus Bullock then became the sole owner of the privilege and plant. from the Royalston MA History The next year Mr. Bullock built the stone mill at the location, in which he continued the business, with large profits, until the end of his life, which came in 1858. It is probable that this stone mill, like a similar one built in Fitchburg a little earlier, perhaps, was constructed without the aid of derricks, the elevated ground adjoining giving opportunity for the building of a timber roadway to each floor as it was placed, over which the ox-teams with the loads of stone could be driven right onto the floors. Following the death of Hon. Rufus Bullock, in 1858, the mill and business were sold to Col. George Whitney, as mentioned on page 88. Col. Whitney had as successive partners, Daniel Day, of South Royalston, Rufus S. Frost, of Chelsea and Marlboro, N. H., and James Phillips, Jr., of Fitchburg and Boston. Beginning in 1861, Roby R. Safford was agent and active manager of the mill for 16 or 17 years.” Col. Whitney’s son, George Ellis Whitney, became associated with his father in the business about 1882, and it was incorporated as “The George Whitney Woolen Company” in 1890, with a capital of $80,000.” details take from the above history link © 2009 Rebecca Bryson.

This area of Okanagan Lake lies just on the northern boundary of Bear Creek Provincial Park, and for many years it has been the staging area for the transfer of logs from the mountains above, to the sawmill across the lake in Kelowna. From here the logs are boomed and then towed by tugboats over to the mill site, as needed. / This area was recently used to build the floating sections of the new bridge across Okanagan Lake and thus the crane and other heavy equipment. It is also where the sections of the old bridge are being dismantled and recycled, reused, or disposed of. / You can just see the edge of the park on the right where the pine trees are and there was a gathering of people there this day, probably a family re-union or party of some sort. The park has just re-opened for the season. / Photo taken April 5/2009, from the top of the cliff just north of the park entrance. /

this is the lower part of the so called Zammer Lochputz, a small canyon near Zams. / The power of the water has been used for ages for running a sawmill and is nowadays used to run two turbines to produce some electricity.
