What would they be worth, 12’ long? How thick should I do then?

 

Logs are 3’ diameter tapering very slowly. 
 

Im thinking good excuse for a 3’ low pro setup.

Be wasting your time slabbing it - 8x2-6X2 ect or posts and beams it makes superb joinery timber but needs to be seasoned first. I would be milling that as 8X4 sleepers they will sell all day long £20-25 each green

They would be nearly 2ft3 each. That is way too cheap.

What is to cheap cutting sleepers £20-25 ?

Your list says 8ft pine is £30 so why would you sell 12ft Douglas for £20 or 25

That is not my list its my mates firm up the road from me They pressure treat and tanalise it for that price. Its only a guide at the end of the day but i did a batch a few weeks back and was happy at £25 cash per sleeper.
