Beech Sawlogs

my point is that these are dead straight and a better quality milling log than some so i feel that they should be milled.

 

i know the british furniture industry has gone to pot and if i had enough space to make my own then i'll be asking for as much english wood as i can. i simply feel that good quality logs should be used for milling and log the crap looking ones.

I agree it's really sad to cut up a good log to send it in to fire wood but there are not enough people in the UK with the skills to use the volume we could produce. When I was selling sawn timber to joiners most of them only knew how to use sapele and other big tropical timber, there were exceptions, but for most the hassle of using European timber wasn't worth it. Sad but true.

 

 

So if I was the op I would try and get them in to someone as log, and I hope you do but at least you know you can firewood them if you get no takers.
