Another 'play' today with an oak log felled last August - my trusty (42 year old) chainsaw had the odd issue but nothing insurmountable.  5 planks was the end result (and some sawdust) and I decided to put them through my new planer thicknesser (even more sawdust / chips etc) before I let them season.  My thinking for this is that they are destined for 'rustic' garden furniture, so any warping as they season wont matter as they are already planed smooth.  I figure I'd lose less board by planing them now rather than after they've seasoned when I might lose more due to cupping etc.  They are now stickered and stacked on my (flat) garage floor - no space in my woodshed at the moment.  They are about 7.5 ft long and up to 1ft wide - milled at 1.5" and planed down till they were near enough mark free but not totally.  Destined to be my garden bench / seat / table etc etc

Not milling as such, but made use of some of the wrc, new outside table ive been hassled about for a while and part one of two benches for it.

The table legs are from Ebay, sufficient for the task just about but not as sturdy as I was hoping / expecting 🤷‍♂️

Bench stands where expensive, does anybody have any other sources of comparable options?

Working with a Woodmizer mill again today. Beech, Ash and Oak. I don't remember where most of it came from but the Oak was from this job 3 months ago.
