Yeah the wide angle does make that log look bigger than it is.

Good to know.  I have one on my phone, it will be handy for ........ reasons.

If I had the kit, I would mill it. But for now, I have some lumps of beech, fairly good size that are up for grabs if anyone wants them. 

 

The base section is pretty rotten, the other two sections both measure 9' or over and are about 2.5-3' diameter. 

 

The tree had fallen across a slope so could only get it out in 3 sections despite the 14 tonne machine and chain.

Finished milling a couple of Oak trees I bought at the back end of last year that had to wait until my ankle was strong again.

Do you seal the end with a clear glue straight after milling if you don't mind me asking ?
