I totally agree with Zachary on the mill being setup under cover on the ground on a solid level base. The only thing my neighbor did differently with his Lynn Sawmill was, his is on a 6" concrete base and the saw dust exits out of the building. That being said if you chose to make it Mobil, a trailer axle which could be installed and removed to lower it down for cutting IMHO would be the best option as you stated a wagon would twist the frame and you do not want that... Additional things to consider if you raise it up 2' in height is as most mills require hand cranking to raise and lower the cutting head, if it is on the top of the mill as is the Lynn mill it would be impossible to reach from the ground of course if you have powered head that point is mute, but the additional height also makes loading and turning logs harder.
The other important thing whether portable or stationary is to make sure the wind is at your back, eating saw dust is not fun :lol: :lol: . I also suggest you google a site called "The Forestry Forum" it has much information, you will find interesting concerning how its member have set up their sawmills as well as a host of sawing problems they have encountered and solutions to them. Good luck and happy sawing !!
