Help with Slabbing, Kent.

Hello.

 

I'm interested in finding someone local who'd like to do a bit of milling - I don't want to ask mates, I'd rather someone saw experienced.

 

Maybe someone who's wanted to get into it themselves.

 

I use an Alaskan 48 & an 880 (up to 48 bar), mostly.

 

What I need help with is the really big stuff.. like yesterday, cutting 2 & 3" slabs of 10ft (120cm wide) Chestnut. I've a piece of Ash the same size to cut, & some huge Alder. I have access to loads of massive lumps and a nice yard to cut at.

 

I'm not always cutting big stuff - recently cut an 80cm western red, 80cm oaks, some awesome Yew, Ash, Cherry.....

 

I'm not a commercial mill (i'd use a woodmizer if i was!) - I'm an X tree climber who's now a carpenter / furniture maker. Most of this timber is being cut to left drying thru the summer, before going in the kiln at home in winter next. Some of it is getting used green.

 

This is a weekend thing - occasional cutting midweek if I'm not working. it is not a paid help I'm looking for, but I'm more than happy to supply you with a few slabs for yourself & maybe pass on some of my stunning carpentry expertise :001_cool: so you can build something yourself.

 

Reply here or a PM.

 

Matt.
