The Sawmill is a small complex along the south-east wall of the Lumber Yard, located east of Varrock. It is the site of the Sawmill training operation. Players with a Woodcutting level below 80 cannot enter the Sawmill.
The Sawmill is separate from the Sawmill operator, who is located in a room along the south-west wall of the Lumber Yard.
Non-members may enter through the hole in the fence on the west side, but cannot do anything once inside.
[edit] Sawmill training
Members who have a woodcutting skill of level 80 or more may enter the Sawmill, where they cut logs and make planks to earn woodcutting experience. Logs are provided in the Sawmill but cannot be taken from the complex, and planks that are made there also cannot be taken away. Saws, which are available for free at the Sawmill, however, can be taken away.
Sawmill training was released on 23 September 2009. It is said that up to 100,000 woodcutting experience per hour can be gained doing jobs at the Sawmill. This would make it one of the fastest ways to gain woodcutting experience currently available, although some players contend that chopping Ivy is faster experience. Some players have gone to the sawmill on a PvP worlds in order to gain experience and also use their woodcutting brawling gloves.
