Tried this at the weekend and to be honest rather than worrying too much about it on the initial cuts I just bashed on and as you say got the biggest square beam possible. Worked out great and made the task of seeing what you could get out of the log much easier. The pic is the result of 3hrs work plus ended up with about 2 cube of off cuts for firewood 

These mills really do take getting used to but hope you found it a far better way to operate

Yep very well cheers, guess I was overthinking things to an extent and spending too much time looking at those perfect drawings showing how to mill logs for max production.
