Doing some part-time tree work now that I've retired from my regular job. I've looked at chainsaw mills (Granberg) for casual milling because it seems interesting, but no experience. Reading this forum confirms it's not necessarily as easy as it sounds. Found out yesterday I have a large black walnut that was blown down on my land, so the subject has come back up. The biggest saw I have right now is a Stihl Farm Boss 20" bar, and no mill. Here's a pic of the tree - about 20" in diameter. Guy who tends the land cut it off his fence; you can see a seven foot section he cut at the base lying perpendicular to the first branch.
What do do? Find an experienced mill guy? Invest in a bigger saw and a mill? What's it worth, as is, on the ground?
Thanks for suggestions.
