Have a good sized oak (not really large I suppose...) that has died back and is being taken down. It is on the edge of what was a farm field - now residential with large lots. It's over 3' diameter at the base but has several large forks low. Largest stem is about 12" diameter at 50' and perhaps 15-18" at about 12' up. Largest bottom section is about 10 usable. Planned to make firewood for my own use but handling the very large pieces is a real struggle. Considering options - there are some people with portable bandsaw mills around. Not really interested in the wood with the time needed to store it but have some room to do that. Wondering if that would be worthwhile to do or perhaps work a deal to sell the wood for milling. Of course best would be to call a few which I intend to do...
