1 Affordable Alternative Powerful Solution 1

2 THE LEGACY OF NORWOOD SAWMILLS...BEGINS WITH A DREAM Over two decades ago, Norwood Sawmills founder Peter Dale took action to turn his long-held desire for a cabin in the woods into a reality. But there was a problem. Between the cost of lumber and the existing portable sawmills at that time, there was no way he could manage the cost. So, he did what forward-thinking entrepreneurs have been doing for hundreds of years. He found his solution by building his own band sawmill. Even then, he set the bar high. The sawmill had to be done right. In addition to being affordable, it had to be strong, reliable, and accurate. Peter Dale never settled for average. He understood and was prepared to spend the necessary time on design, testing, and refining his concept. His efforts positioned Norwood Sawmills as a leader in their market. AND THAT LEGACY LIVES ON TODAY. 2

3 Meeting the Need. EXCEEDING EXPECTATIONS. Peter Dale set the standard for novel designs, innovative technology, and simple yet effective mechanical concepts applied in creative ways. Through the years, Norwood has consistently met the needs of sawyers around the world with well-thought out designs. Today, Norwood Sawmills has more than fifty patents on innovative yet practical personal sawmills and components, more than ALL other sawmill companies in the world combined! Norwood has sawmills in service in more than 100 countries, performing steadily since early 1993 without any issues, a testament to Norwood s ongoing commitment to quality and dependability. AT NORWOOD, WE VE NEVER BEEN AFRAID TO TAKE ON A CHALLENGE. We believe it is of utmost importance to listen to our Norwood family of sawmill users. But we also listen to the comments, questions, and suggestions of those who are still waiting to invest in their first Norwood sawmill. You ve Asked. We ve Listened. And This Is the Result INTRODUCING THE FRONTIER OS27 PORTABLE SAWMILL BY NORWOOD 3

4 YOU SPOKE AND WE LISTENED. For years, we ve sat back watching other companies produce portable sawmills offshore that were cheaply made and of inferior quality. We resisted this track for a long time. But there s no denying the number of people we ve heard from, imploring us to produce an even more affordable sawmill. This wasn t an easy decision for us. We believe strongly in our country, and the workmanship of our skilled staff. But we continued to hear from more and more people who tried other brands of sawmills manufactured off shore and were deeply disappointed in the flimsy construction and poor performance. Today we re here to say IF YOU RE GOING TO DO IT, DO IT WITH SOMEONE YOU TRUST! We realized you deserve so much more. And we couldn t just sit by and ignore the obvious need for a more affordable entry-level portable sawmill. After a lot of thought, numerous intense discussions, months of strategic research and design, and yes, some sleepless nights, we realized we had an obligation to all of those waiting for their first Norwood, who needed an option we didn t have until now. 4

5 THE OS27 PORTABLE SAWMILL is our first and only sawmill manufactured outside of North America. AND AS ALWAYS, WE KNEW IF WE WERE GOING TO DO THIS, WE WERE GOING TO DO IT RIGHT. The OS27 Sawmill Is Your BEST Choice Because We Do It BETTER! 3 The OS27 delivers the highest production volumes in its class thanks to Norwood s patented auto-locking sawhead, a feature that saves you hours of tedious repetitive operations. 1 Enjoy more power with the standard 13hp (420cc) Briggs gas engine (as compared to their underpowered sub-10hp motors). 2 Large 19 diameter cast-iron bandwheels for greater torque and increased blade life. 4 The backbone of the OS sawmill is Norwood s patented laminated sawhead construction giving it the strongest and most rigid-possible core. 8 Strong box-beam cross-bunks. 5 We ve included durable wear-resistant vertical guide blocks. 6 A full-size 144 band blade for increased blade life. 7 Customizable Trailer, auto-lube system and cam-dog available! 9 Precision laser-cut track. The Frontier OS27 was born from more than two years of planning and design. Norwood created ALL elements of the design using our high standards of innovative engineering. Frontier Sawmills are built to rigorous international safety standards. Norwood s quality-assurance team inspects all Frontier OS sawmills. 5

6 BUT WAIT THERE S MORE! The Frontier is safer and more stable in the cut: They flex. We don t. We use more material to build a heavier sawmill. The sawhead and carriage are more robust. The entire sawmill is powder-coated or zinc-plated. The OS27 gives rough-sawn a whole new meaning! It s easier to put together because the sawhead is already assembled. Norwood is known for the smoothness of operation and smoothness of the sawn lumber. The OS27 is as close as you can get from ANY mill built outside of North America. You are protected by our ONE-YEAR non-commercial warranty. Even LumberJack Gives the Frontier OS27 Sawmill Two Thumbs Up! And that s why we say to anyone looking at getting a sawmill made offshore If you re going to do it, do it with US! We realize the OS27 sawmill may not be for everybody. But we also know we are serving a lot of folks who might not be able to afford a premium-quality Made in North-America Norwood Portable Sawmill, and need this option. THE OS27 IS FOR YOU IF You re shopping for the best price because you need to save money. You re a hands-on kind of person, but not necessarily a craftsman. You re not planning to use your sawmill as a business venture. You re a beginner sawyer who appreciates a trusted company that has specialized in portable sawmilling for a quarter century and has a reputation for delivering innovation and reliability. This is your first portable sawmill. You re looking for a basic mill without loads of options or attachments. You re excited to start with rough-sawn projects like cabins, shelters, and sheds. You value premium-quality work done here at home, but don t feel you can justify the slight extra cost right now. You re independent, smart, and want the most mill for your dollar. 6

We expect to start shipping from our current production run late April When we sell out of that inventory, it will be at least THREE MONTHS before the Frontier OS27 will be available for you again.

12 Shipping Easy, fast, and low-cost There are three ways you ll save money shipping your Frontier Sawmill by Norwood: 1. Your Frontier Sawmill can be shipped right to your front door for a lot less than you think usually just a few hundred dollars. That s because it is compactly packaged in kit form within in a single crate so you don t pay to ship air! 2. Our high shipping volumes have earned us the industry s biggest discounts on freight rates. 3. Our carriers compete for each shipment - so you get the absolute lowest delivery rate possible. Shipped to Your Door: In the U.S.A. and Canada, Frontier Sawmills ship by common carrier freight truck (directly to your residence or business), so it s important that your delivery address is easily accessible to a tractor-trailer. Shipped in knockdown form (though the sawhead comes pre-assembled), the Frontier Sawmill is securely packaged in a 7 3 x 2 1 x 2 10 (2.2m x 0.63m x.87m) crate. You or your designated agent must be present to accept the order and offload it. If no one is at the delivery address to accept the order, re-delivery and storage charges may apply. After your order has shipped, you may want to call the trucking company to confirm the date of delivery; call us to obtain your carrier name and phone number, shipment tracking number, and ship date. *A liftgate is required on the delivery truck to bring the crate down to ground level, so transit times may vary depending upon the availability of liftgate delivery services to your location. Alternatively, please advise us at the time you place your order if you have a forklift that you can use to safely unload the crate from the back of the truck. Pick-Up: If you would like to pick up your sawmill or forestry equipment order directly from our warehouse, please call us toll-free at , three business days in advance, so that we can have your order ready. You will need a pick-up truck, full-size van, or sturdy trailer. Shipment Outside the U.S.A. & Canada: We ship sawmills to over 100 countries. Because we dedicate experienced staff solely to servicing international customers, shipments to global destinations are handled professionally, quickly, and smoothly.

We back that up with a 30-day money-back guarantee. If your Frontier and Norwood equipment doesn t do everything we say, simply return it to us within 30 days and receive a refund (shipping not included)*. One-Year Consumer Warranty We will repair or replace (at our discretion), any part returned to us and found to be defective through manufacturing within the first year of the original purchaser s ownership (except consumable items like belts, blades, bearings & clutch). The engine is covered by a 2-year warranty directly with the engine manufacturer. * Not including used blades or damaged parts. Important: To ensure that you receive the best possible value, the Frontier Sawmill ships in knockdown form (the sawhead comes factory-assembled) and includes step-by-step assembly instructions with detailed illustrations, exploded views, and photos. Important: All orders are shipped prepaid, which means that the shipping charges are paid at the time of your order. In all cases, before signing for the shipment (by signing the freight waybill or packing slip), please check your order carefully upon delivery to ensure that you receive all pieces and boxes listed on your packing slip and that they are in good order. Note missing or damaged pieces on the freight waybill before signing. Any claims not reported in writing on the freight waybill at the time of delivery become the sole responsibility of the purchaser; failure to report missing or damaged pieces and boxes in writing on the freight waybill at the time of delivery nullifies your insurance and precludes any subsequent claims.
