Just a few observations which don't answer your
question.

I grew up with a sawmill - operated by/ and
trained by my father. i second the comment that
sawing is an ART. The old guy who hammered our
saws would look at the blade - hit it a few times
- and then it sawed straight.

You'll need 35 to 40 hp on that mill if it's
running well.

It's also the most dangerous legal hobby you can
get into. The guy who sold my Dad our mill
finally had cut off all his fingers - couldn't
operate it any longer. Don't try to learn this on
your own - spend some time working at somebody's
mill - even on your own time. it'll be cheaper
than a fune
