Indianapolis, IN – Wood-Mizer LLC, the world’s leading sawmill manufacturer, has announced the winners of their 2013 Personal Best Contest, a long-standing tradition that recognizes Wood-Mizer sawmill owners who have fulfilled their dream projects by sawing their own lumber.

The contest, which occurs every two years, is open to any Wood-Mizer sawmill owners interested in competing for their share of the $20,000 in prize credits which is awarded. The 2013 contest marked the most Personal Best entries Wood-Mizer has ever received.

Each entry was judged on creativity, originality, complexity, quality of workmanship, and overall use of the Wood-Mizer sawmill to complete the project. First, Second and Third Place winners were named in each category.

Chris Becker of Northampton, Pennsylvania was awarded First Place of Category 5 for his exquisite remodel of a 100-year-old kitchen. With the help of his Wood-Mizer LT40 Hydraulic, Chris finished the kitchen just in time for his wedding which was held at their newly remodeled home.

Hank Carroll of Bluffton, South Carolina was awarded Second Place for his one-of-a-kind, queen sized, 4 poster Rapunzel Castle bed built for his daughter using a Wood-Mizer LT40 Hydraulic.

Bob Jones of Emporium, Pennsylvania was awarded Third Place for his 1800’s farmhouse revival constructed with lumber milled on his Wood-Mizer LT40.
