Please welcome E.Z. Boardwalk Sawmills as the newest Forestry Forum Sponsor!

If You get a chance, give Edward Zimmerman a call at the number below and let him know you saw him here as a sponsor. Right now Edward does not have the ability to get email or on-line contact, but he does have someone putting together a website for him. You can click on the sponsor link to the left to keep tabs on EZ BOARDWALK Info as it is added to the site.

Edward became a Sponsor after reading some printed posts that one of his customers brought to him and became interested in helping to sponsor the effort here. I think that is really something great.

EZ BOARDWALK Sawmills is located in Emden Missouri

I know that Edward would love to hear from you!

Kentucky Wood Expo - Sept 2006

I'll say something to Eli the next time I see him. We use to cross paths a couple of times a year at trade shows and such. Great guy, great family to visit with. He carries a variety of items useful for the sawmill owner. His mills have a few novel features and he's a snappy dresser!

P.S. all his local ads say " No Sunday calls please".

Ed,
Welcome to the forum. I had a nice conversation with you at the Sawlex last May and enjoyed seeing your two mills.

Thanks very much for being a sponsor, Edward ! Welcome !

Bibbyman · « **Reply #8 on:** February 16, 2010, 06:40:10 pm »

I asked Mary and “Eli” is the only name we've known him by. Maybe we've been wrong all these years? Maybe he's got an alias?

If I were a manual bandmill buyer, there's would be on my list.

Thanks EZ Boardwalk

Hey! I know them. They is not all that far from here. Used to see them down at Little Rock at the Farm Show. That mill cuts on a bit of an angle. Kind of a neat deal. Pretty well made machines and they are nice folks.

He's been to the Springfield Farm Fest the last couple 2-3 times we've been there. But he was set up way on the other end of the fairgrounds from the other mills.

I know many thousands of people and a fair amount fewer of genuinely, bone-deep good character, like Ed. I'm thankful to know him and I'm always glad to see him. He is the "early bird" that gets the worm.

I saw him at Richmond; He was sweating there (with the rest of us) at Cape Girardeau; ...wiping the mud at Morgantown; and at Paul Bunyan.

A fine fellow. I wish him well!

Welcome to Forestry Forum, E Z Boardwalk. We are sure glad to have you as a sponsor. During 2009 Sawlex I had a chance to look at your mills and take a few pictures. I can't seem to locate the pictures yet. I was impressed by your sawmills, a lot of mill for the money. Thanks

thecfarm · « **Reply #15 on:** February 17, 2010, 08:23:28 am »

Never saw one in use,but I do remember the head being at an angle to the rails.Welcome to the forum.

WDH · « **Reply #16 on:** February 17, 2010, 08:25:47 am »

EZ, thanks for the sponsorship!

Brucer · « **Reply #17 on:** February 17, 2010, 11:25:05 pm »

Well, I haven't seen one yet, but already I like his design. From the website ...

"Guard prevents blade from cutting into clamps "

Part_Timer · « **Reply #18 on:** February 18, 2010, 10:31:36 pm »

I've had a chance to run one of those at the KY wood expo. If I needed another band mill that would be the one I'd have.
Thanks Edward.

rickywashere · « **Reply #19 on:** February 18, 2010, 11:23:43 pm »

hmm they look interesting .. would be nice to see one in action , kinda wonder about the slant cutting and how it works

fishpharmer · « **Reply #20 on:** February 19, 2010, 06:30:30 am »

The EZ Boardwalk mills at Sawlex 2009 were doing a fine job cutting. They would be on my shortlist of manual mills if I was in the market for one.

sdunston · « **Reply #21 on:** February 19, 2010, 07:08:58 pm »

I like the shingle and sidding jig, and the price makes me smile

rockman · « **Reply #25 on:** February 20, 2010, 01:06:11 pm »

I would also like to see one up close and personal, is there anyone in North Carolina, Southern Virginia that have one? Does he travel this far East to trade shows, as I don't see myself going to Mo. any time soon.

Jeff · « **Reply #26 on:** February 20, 2010, 02:47:58 pm »

Give him a call next week. I'm sure he be glad to answer all your questions and let you know where he will be and if there are customers close to you.

Haytrader · « **Reply #27 on:** February 25, 2010, 03:45:07 pm »

Glad to see you as a sponsor as well, Edward.

I am the proud owner of one of Edwards mills. Somewhere in the archives there are pictures and discussions about the mill. With a sharp blade the mill will almost pull itself through the log. I have and continue to be very pleased with the EZ Boardwalk sawmill.

welcome Edwards, you finally made it. We only live 14 miles apart and he is a fine family man a

Jeff · « **Reply #29 on:** March 18, 2010, 10:16:03 am »

I just got a call from Edward. He was at an event this week where someone was able to pull up the Forestry Forum for him and he was able to read all the welcomes that you gave. He called to ask me to post a thank you to all of you.

So, Thank you from Edward and Easy Boardwalk Sawmills.

Stephen1 · « **Reply #30 on:** March 24, 2010, 02:19:51 pm »

Welcome Edward,
I was at sawlex, I was very impressed with their mill, it also is on my shortlist of new manual mills.

Terry Hicks · « **Reply #31 on:** October 31, 2010, 08:48:42 pm »

I just bought one of Edwards mills. I love it, easy to operate, does a great job of sawing. Id say for the money his mill is one of the best.

paul case · « **Reply #32 on:** October 31, 2010, 10:09:48 pm »

welcome terry,

Thats one good thing about the bandsaw industry smaller co.'s with good ideas can make it,long may they prosper.Our auto industry at the turn of the last century was like that many small companys and inovations but eventally only the big guys prevailed.I hope its a long time before that happens to the bandsaw industry.Frank C.

reprosser · « **Reply #35 on:** November 02, 2010, 03:29:54 pm »

I have the Jr model and it works great for me. Edward went out of his way to make it possible for me to get the mill without high freight charges. His son rove it to Atlanta for me to pick up. Great customer service.

edward did the same for me. he is located about 5 or 6 hours from me but he was going to be in springfield mo at the farmfest so i picked up my mill there and he didnt charge me any delivery fee. he is a big help, even though he isnt right down the street,you can call him and he is always ready to help. ez boardwalks are good mills with a good man standing behind it. pc
