Got into a wild looking log from a tree that had been through some intense fires over that last few hundred years. As a result it had some wicked heart rot but we managed to work around it and get some really beautiful boards.

Is it all for your log cabin build or do you sell some? 

Nice size stack for two days milling!

[Erik]

Both stacks are from a job where I got payed in lumber, meaning for every board foot I milled for the clients I took one for myself. The 1st stack that is stickers is for my personal stash and the other is gonna be turned into a large wrap around deck for the folks I was working for. 

 

3-4 guys, some nice 36"-40" logs, a whole lot of coffee, a couple 10-12 hour days  and we produced quite a bit of lumber.  My back is killing me, but we got er done!

We banged out a log in the morning before heading off to do a Madrone removal. Another log that went through some serious fires creating some wicked heart rot but also making for some amazing looking wood. This one almost looked like a brazilian rosewood fretboard on an old Fender guitar! Straight to the personal stash with this stuff.

Awesome few days milling for 3dWood/Nick Speakman Sculpture. Cut a load of big Oak and Cedar plus a bit of Wellingtonia and some funky sycamore. So glad we had a forklift and also this super handy lifting chains!!
