: Hello, Arko-

: Where are you at? I'd be happy to mill it for you on my Lucas Mill. I'm in SW
: Ohio. You've got about 500 bd-ft in that log, if it's any good. Put
: another way, enough walnut for 15 or 20 'yaks

: I agree with other comments regarding Alaskan Mill and band mill. A single,
: relatively small, residential log is not going to get many millers
: salivating. The last time I did a backyard log I foung a buried basketball
: hoop bracket. What fun that was

: Another option is to freehand rip the log with a chainsaw, preferably with a
: ripping blade on it. It is a rough method, but works. When I used to have
: a bandmill I'd occassionally have to do this to get a large log to submit.
: The Lucas can handle anything, so I haven't had to do that in a while.

: Have fun, and good luck, but be careful! Consider putting chocks around the
: side of it to keep it from getting away from you. Hope this helps. Mike
