Hi , I am sure that you can set the depth of cut on the vertical mill so , I would do my first cut remove the ladder set depth on vertical , set width one cut set width and so on across the log , then set height on alaskan and away to go , 4/5 beams , the width setting every time is a bit of a faf but hey , chainsaw milling there is quite a bit of faf , good luck post some pics Cheers Mark

Shame you are so far away or I would have jumped at that -
Hi , I have a 9 and 4 n 1/2 inch grinders with backing pads and 24 grit discs ideal if the boards are a bit rough from milling electric plane and hand but dont use the hand one much and also orbital andbelt sanders it all depends on the board to start with but mostly for me its grinders and orbitals but have been thinking about router planing but it looks like it takes ages Cheers Mark
