"Been There, Milled That"
Well, we got a break in the weather and finally got to the big oak. Funny how pictures never do anything justice. The original picture looked a bit more manageable.
That's me.
We started at the top. The tree had fallen along a shallow ditch and over the road. The top of the tree had already been cleaned up.
Warm and humid that day. Went through two gallons of water. I've got to get back into shape.
Getting the log off of the root ball.
42" bar, and used all of it.
Split the log to get it down to a manageable size. The small slab was still big enough to take out the winch. Going to have to mill it down on site.
