Brrraaaaap!
My first milling "job" with my alaskan mill.
395xp, 32" bar, granberg ripping chain.
The owner of this property originally had me cut a few large cookies out of this trunk for a project. As soon as I saw this log, I knew it was a perfect job for an alaskan mill. Down a hill in the woods, no equipment to skid it, no way to set up a bandmill. This was the best 7 feet of the tree too. Some slabs have soft spots, but most of it has some good spalting.
I got half the slabs, a few bucks for gas and some blueberries and raspberries. It was fun!
Feel free to critique\advise me on my technique. Still new at this.
