Please Help! Im desperately needing advice on how to go about this

[Chris Holman]

I hope yall can help me, im just getting started in cutting slabs, I've been freehanding these but I need the cheapest chainsaw mill attachment there is that will accomplish my task, i have logs I want to cut even/flat slices out of, can the granberg mini mill be used this way instead of cutting the log length wise? Sometimes I end up wanting to cut a 3 inch slice and one end is 1.5-2 inches and the other is 3, I need it even. Please any advice is appreciated.

Try sticking a couple chunks of 2x4 on either side of the log to use as a guide to keep you in line

Your cutting cookies?

How about using a bandsaw? Chainsaw the pieces to 2-3 ft logs and then cut the cookies.3

I am confused...

You inquire about getting a mill for slabs but then inquire on and show a picture of a cookie. A mill will only assist in cutting slabs the length of the log.

Welcome to AS. If the saw is cutting slanted then it may need sharpened. If you are having problems cutting straight maybe you could mark the cut with chalk.
