Had a go with my new 36' mill on some walnut today. 390xp pulled quite well but a 3120 may be the way forward. Will paint the ends with Pva and get them stored.

What's the reason behind the pva at the ends ?

Sent from my SM-A310F using Arbtalk mobile app
 

It seals the end grain and stops the wood from drying unevenly, causing splits and deformation.

Just finished this oak breakfast bar for friends. Boards have moved a bit in there new home even though i milled them ages ago. I did make some wooden legs but we thought the simple hairpins worked well.

Made this coffee table for a client over Christmas. Got a pippy/burry oak top, brown oak legs and normal oak rails. Tried Some fancy strengthened lap joints and dovetailed blind half laps as I wanted to use some joints I’ve not tried before.
Milled all this wood with an Alaskan years ago when I first started chainsaw milling. Pretty chuffed with how it turned out!
