Default Homemade Bandsaw mill
I was wanting to know if anyone has built or is using a homemade saw mill? I'm looking for one for small firewood size logs.Probally one with a 5hp motor or so.There has to be one out there somewhere.Let me know where I can come up with some plans or designs.

Check eBay under a search "sawmill" or "bandmill". There are people that sell plans there. If you are thinking about building a nice mill, it would be a good idea to see if you can find one in your area...watch it cut, see how it is built.

Edit: Here is one from eBay:http://cgi.ebay.com/PORTABLE-SAWMILL...QQcmdZViewItem

Here is a set of plans:http://cgi.ebay.com/Bandsaw-Mill-Pla...QQcmdZViewItem
