Hi nice rails if they had some legs on them you could roll a log onto them then jack up with a high lift jack and then you would not be on your knees milling when half way through the log , I have been trying to find time to make one myself for ages and I think rails like yours with legs on would be the way to go Cheers Mark

Seeing as you have so many planks why not have a go at spalting some by covering in damp sawdust it just seems to speed up what happens naturally Cheers Mark
