Pics of your milled products

No idea. On estate I work on. Felled before I got here. I'm sure it's been down a while. The trunk I milled was suspended of ground by the root plate.

 

One end more decay than other. Gets worse as I drop through log. Top planks alright. All solid.

 

Plan to other half of log later. Will amputate decayed end prior to milling.

I did a 30" dia beech about 4 weeks ago. It had been down at least 4 years but the whole log was off the ground with the top of it held up by a 3' wall. The council had removed all the branches and all I had to do was cross cut it twice to length. Only the top log was slightly spalted and some of the bark was starting to come away. If it had been on the deck I think it would have been well spalted and probably even soft on the bottom half

An oak table I made for a customer using an oak tree they had felled a year or so ago.

Nice work. Interesting design. What is the red blocks under the feet?

Thanks, They put bricks underneath the feet to keep them off the soil as they're planning on putting some stone around them I think

Cheers guys, really enjoyed myself building it. It should last a fair while! Took 4 of us to move each of the planks on top!

Nice table sir!

 

Looks like you had bother with metal, judging by the blue stain! I had the pleasure of cutting a Victorian screw in half yesterday in an old elm. Must have been 6mm in diameter.

Milled about 10 tonnes of elm yesterday for a customer - they will end up as whisky boxes.

 

Here is a nice book match. This log was difficult to mill - the wild grain and wide cuts (up to 39") meant it was constantly trying to deviate. Managed though.
