all depends ,we shift alot of oak more than anyting ,the beech will be 4'' slab most likley,will post some pics when its being done,we have a good market of beams

[Rob D]

I find I can sell beams to the oak framers round here for £16 to £20 per cube but it's rare I have good enough oak to produce the quality they're after.....

Had play with my Small Log Mill today.

I haven’t milled anything before so I thought id practice on a few bits of larch and made this rough bench.

 

Cracked the LCD on my camera so pic's are'nt too good.

did you use a chain saw to carve out the holes for youre joints? have you wedged (technical term!) the joint on the outside?

Yes and kind of wedged.

I cut the bench ends first, placed that level on a log, offered up the legs penciled round them and then cut the holes.

Then drilled a 15mm hole at each end and whitteled an offcut to fit and tapped it in.

Very nice Josh, looks like it's quite heavy, What joints did you use or did you screw it.

[Ian Leach]

Looks good Bart, Is it seasoned or green??? Don't you find it gets mold on it green.
