Description: T.A. Schneider Logging was founded in 1939 in the small Oregon town of Myrtle Creek and was one of the first companies in America to embrace Autocar's tough new truck platform fleet-wide. They were also one of the first logging operations to truly embrace responsible forest management and sustainable logging practices which was further reflected in their name change to T.A. Schneider Forestry Services in 1948.
Description: MacMillan Bloedel Limited, commonly known as MacMillan Bloedel, and sometimes referred to simply as "MacBlo," was a Canadian forestry company headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia. It was formed through the merger of smaller forestry companies in 1951. Those were the Powell River Company, the Bloedel Stewart Welch Company, and the H.R. MacMillan Company. MacMillan Bloedel was purchased by a global forestry services company in 1999 at which point MacBlo ceased to exist.

Description: Initial logging enterprises in mid-1800s Washington State existed to supply timber to California’s Gold Rush and the population growth it precipitated. But when the Northern Pacific railroad opened a direct rail link over the Cascades to Tacoma in 1887, and with Wisconsin and Minnesota already grossly depleted by deforestation, Washington and the Pacific Northwest quickly assumed the role of primary timber supplier to the nation, ensuring the region’s rapid development as it entered the 20th century and 'Washington's toothpicks' became an increasingly common sight as loggers hauled them down the highways and byways.
Description: The better commercial chainsaws were primarily manufactured in Germany and when World War II interrupted their availability to North America, new manufacturers sprang up. One such company was the Canadian firm, Industrial Engineering Limited (IEL), who began making top tier chainsaws in 1939 to fill the void, making them the oldest manufacturer of chainsaws in North America. IEL saws are still prized by woodworkers and collectors alike, with most still running like a top.
