The portable sawmill is an item won on Treasure Hunter that acts as a lumber mill when planted. Planks made using it receive a 10% discount.

It can be placed anywhere that you can light a fire and is both visible to and usable by all other players. It vanishes 5 minutes after being placed. When using the sawmill, players are asked how many logs they would like to convert into planks. The cost for making a plank with the sawmill is 10% lower than the cost from the Sawmill operator.

Log	Plank	Cost in coins
		Plank Make + 1,235 for runes	Portable sawmill	Sawmill	Construction Cape Perk
Logs	Plank	70	90	100	90
Oak logs	Oak plank	175	225	250	225
Teak logs	Teak plank	350	450	500	450
Mahogany logs	Mahogany plank	1050	1350	1500	1350

Profit calculator

The following table estimates profit for every 1,000 logs turned into planks. Milling rates are typically around 8,000 planks per hour, but easily can be higher with use of a one-step bank, such as at the Combat Academy bank chest in Lumbridge, along with a bank preset with mahogany logs.

Log	Plank	Log Price	Cost	Plank Value	Profit/Loss
Logs	Plank	291	90	799	412,709
Oak logs	Oak plank	591	225	556	−265,291
Teak logs	Teak plank	105	450	372	−188,291
Mahogany logs	Mahogany plank	300	1350	1321	−334,291

Trivia

• Prior to 3 May 2016, using portable sawmills could also produce protean planks.
• As of 6 June 2016, checking the duration of a portable skill station will no longer interrupt skilling actions. This action can also be done remotely.
