ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Sawmill

A sawmill is a place where people cut big pieces of wood into smaller pieces. Imagine you have a big tree trunk, but you need smaller pieces of wood to build a house or make a chair. The sawmill is where they use special tools to cut the big tree trunk into smaller pieces. It's like using a big sharp knife to slice a carrot into smaller pieces. But instead of a knife, they use big machines with sharp blades that are powered by electricity. People who work at a sawmill need to be very careful because the machines are very powerful and can be dangerous. They wear special clothes and use special tools to protect themselves while they work. Once the wood is cut into pieces, it can be used to make all sorts of things, like furniture, paper, or even houses!
