Just wondering if anyone has ever used a smaller bar to cut half way through a larger log and finishing up with a second cut on the other side?
I have a friend that is needing a 30-32" diameter in half to make a bench out of. All I have is a basic alaskan mill and a 20 and a 30 inch bar. The log is about 5-6' in length.
I was just wondering what everyone's thoughts were. If I should rip it with the 20 on one side and then wedge it and go around the other side the same way.
I don't think he's looking for a premium smooth cut but I aslo don't want to scar it up more than I have to.
Thanks in advance for your comments and thoughts.
