Hello all,

can the transformation of trees into lumber be achieved at home? I mean,
are there some home-installable tools that can be bought for this task? If
so, how much do they cost?

thanks

Yes certainly.

The very cheapest way involves some bracing to hold the log in place
and raise it to allow a saw to be used either horizontally or
vertically to cut slabs of the appropriate thickness.

Possibly less than $100 in equipemnt but a huge degree of labor.

There are some portable mills advertised in Popular Mechanics and some
woodwork magazines starting from about $3,000.
