I removed a large post oak tree this past weekend, it had a 36" diameter trunk about 17' long. I've got it in two lengths ready to mill. I've never milled before. I have a 395xp and ordered a Alaskan mill and 42" bar with two chains.
I have read threw the tips and tricks page, but am still open to any advice. My plan for now is to start with a few slabs and see what they look like and how cracked the wood is already, then try and decided what can be done with it. You can see a few nails I cut threw, I imagine I'll find more as I go, I plan to borrow a metal detector. I'll post pictures as I go!
