What are you currently cutting?
« on: January 06, 2024, 06:07:16 PM »
Taking down some red oak (doesn't live long on my land in the mountains in VA), white and yellow pine, black gum.  Replanting with some walnut.

I'm glad to see somebody's doing something!  lol  I've been in damage control for the last 3 years it seems.  No time, no need, too hot, too cold, etc. for sawmilling it seems.  Maybe I'm just a puss. But I do have a log deck full of red cedar for sometime.

Next job on my mill is going to be a massive white oak that I have to split before even thinking about getting it on my LT40

Have had requests for wood turning blanks. Cut up some tulip poplar to see how that works for them.
