Today's milling

[se7enthdevil]

only the oak is durable so i would not use the rest for an outdoor BBQ area myself.

 

40-50mm is fine for milling to but keep a heavy weight on top of the stack to keep them flat whilst they dry.

Cherry durable but be a waste outside if not burnished to show off grain

Edit : cherry with high proportion of heartwood

Nice work.

Used a little more than a sip as I used a spudded 660 ?

Ah, I thought you where showing how much you had left in the tank.  Kidding. 

 

 

My 088 loves a drink when Milling too. I'm waiting on an excuse to get it down to him one day.  

 

When I Milled some Cherry it warped and split like crazy. Even weighed down with a whole bunch of Tractor weights.

Time is money, ported saws cut quicker!! 

 

That's filled me with confidence!! 

I've stickered up, and there is plenty of airflow and I'll put the beech on top too

So we'll see what happens I guess
