Any one have any luck milling these?
Tan Oak (Lithocarpus densiflorus)
Black Oak (Quercus kelloggii)
Valley Oak (Quercus lobata)
Interior Live Oak (Quercus wislizeni)
I've noticed most of you are from the East side so you may not know.
I do have the opportunity to mill these all the time, I just don't since they aren't supposed to work well for furniture,though they may be good for turning or something. Right now I just make a lot of firewood which seems a waste.
My experiment with Madrone (Arbutus menziesii) isn't working out too well either. Even under weight, they are not drying flat at all and they checks something fierce.
