Absolutely! As a consumer who hires portable mills, the first guy I used told me that I paid for his mill. Of course he put in more than a few hours getting it. Around here it's not uncommon to hear guys charging $50-60/ hr. At that rate I'd be tempted to buy a mill, but my current guy is only $30/hr for a $35k mill. My interest is selling lumber, not sawing.

Now is where we get into profitablity or not. I have a tractor that cost $7.5k and gets me $55/hr. Operating cost is higher than a mill but my overhead is much lower. Lots of work available, but I'd not be inclined to shell out $35k for a $30/hr return. Your mileage may vary.
