Hi all I cut some nice green Redgum short's a few day's back , about a third of the pile so far , just love green Redgum cut's so easy , would have been firewood otherwise , I haven't got to the bigger stuff yet , some of the other stuff is about 3' wide , but I have to trim the edge's off , to get it down to 28" , that's all my mill can handle at the moment , until I get a longer bar anyway . Should be nice when it dry's out , it get's a lot darker red usually when it drys out . Cheer's MM ...... I will get some better photos when I do the bigger stuff . I took one out of Woodshops book and ripped it with normal Carlton semichisel chain , it's give's you a little rougher surface , but eh it's going through the planer eventually and it cut's much faster than ripping chain , on the big stuff I will still use ripping chain , only because it wont fit through the planer and it will create to much work when trying to finish it by hand .
