Some of you may remember a couple of months ago I wrote requesting advice on saving some walnut logs from a construction site. All told, I was able to save (5) 16-22 inch diameter logs averaging 7 feet in length and one crotch piece. Well....the logs have been milled using my MS390 and 24 inch mill (pictures of that work to follow) and the crotch was milled by a local mill (less than a mile from my house) on a WoodMizer to reduce waste, not to mention my mill can't handle the 32 inch width at the fork. I feel as though I got a good deal considering that the wood cost gas and a few hours of time to get after work. It cost $50 for almost an hour of milling and handling the log. I was able to get 6-7 slabs at 7/4. Anyway, here are a few pics to get you drooling.
