I have this very large oak log that I want to put on my new bandsaw mill. The problem is that it is way to big to put on the mill as is so I want to quarter it. Other than taking my chain saw and ripping it any Ideas? If you were to use the chainsaw and free hand it any tips on keeping the cut straight. I have used black powder in the past so that may be the option I go with. Using black powder does not split very straight so this may make a lot of waste. Maybe the best advice is to make it into fire wood, but that seems like a waste. Note that the gun in the pic is a remington 870 for size reference. Thanks for your advice.
