Milling small Black Walnut stick

Recommended Posts

Hi all, I'm new to milling so appologies if this is 'one of those' threads!

 

Felled this small Walnut the other day, I thought it would be a shame to cut it for firewood but is it too small to mill?

 

I know a guy with a chainsaw mill, how long roughly would it take to slab it? And what thickness boards would be reasonable to cut?

 

The saw for reference is 22 inch bar, the length is roughly 3.2-3.5m, with about 1.0-1.2m clear wood.

Hi if you only have access to an alaskan I would go for iinch and a half or even one at two and a half if you want a table top even if you only get a few planks , its better than none as walnut doesnt come up all that oftenn get it while you can

Cheers Mark
