According to Doug Coffey, the mill structure is 16" long and 13" wide (including power house).  You can see his sawmill on his web pages http://www.dougcoffey.com/index.html and its well worth a visit.  I asked him the same question since I have the kit but don't want to assemble it until after a planned move back to NC.  That fact has not stopped me from building a sectional layout and I needed to know what size 'hole' to leave for its eventual inclusion.  Just reading the instruction book has been daunting but I can't wait to begin.  You might like to see where he located his power house since that effects the footprint making one side longer than the other.

If this is what your talking about it's 13.5x29.5 in O scale so I would think you can just cut the dimentions in half? HO does mean Half O scale correct?

Oh and if you want to spend $575.00 this guy has one in HO

Just my 2 cents worth, I spent the rest on trains. If you choked a Smurf what color would he turn?

Anyone know the foot print dimensions of the  Master Creations Coon Gap Sawmill created and sold about 1998. Coon Gap was sold out and no longer marketed in HO.
