    Ive been making furniture for parks for over 15yrs,,,,and have a good idea whats needed,,,,like rob says,,2-3 inch timbers are great,,,I basically make sure the bark is off nowadays if Im going to use the timber myself,,whilst it looks great it encourages beetle and worm,,unless its cedar,,, I have loads of mates who are builders,and word travells fast, I square lots of oak up into large beams and then recut if needed,,using the waste for smaller planks,,,,, Ive had a habiat of treating some of them with five star,,obviously only if its to be used indoors for beams etc,,,,, Just made a Oak timber framed building for a school,,,,and used all my own timber,,,,its very rewarding,,,,,

    hi its a good topic,,,,one I took hours dwelling over,,to buy saw or not? I eventually bought a woodmizer as had big load of oak coming in off job,,,,,so made sense,,got saw and have started getting money, back,,,,then comes along a job to take down huge cedar,,,,when I way up the cost of a crane,and a mate with tractor and low loader,,it wasnt worth it,,even after my time and lads wages,,,so used arb talk and am bringing in a fellow member with a lucas,,,,,,now i`d love one of them too,,,but,,,,,I`d be looking at divorce papers,,,,so contacts and resources like this site are great,,,,, dont regret getting it yet. P.s do need a better tractor for loading etc,,,,lol
