Good day all. Just found the site not long ago and decided to join. I am a hobby wood worker and have have some experience with chainsaws. Mostly firewood, cleaning up down trees and farm use. I am no logger but have cut down a few trees in my life. I am really looking into chainsaw milling. Mostly because I have 3 large red oak trunks from some trees I had taken down last year. They were too big for me so I had a local arborist do it. The interest in trying to get into chainsaw milling is that I can't find anyone who can mill the trunks. They are 50" diameter. I know it sounds like a lot to do for a few trees but I also had my arborist express interest a large granberg mill so I am hoping it will be a collaboration. Then maybe I can gain experience and start on some smaller logs. Anyway looking to learn as much as I can.
