This thread may likely start a new addiction for me, lol. I've got a beautiful 11' long 18-20" diamter Walnut log here that I want to mill into shelf boards. There's also a nice, larger diameter hard Maple log I can get my hands on.
Basically I'm looking for advise on what to buy. The power head will be a 084. I currently have 36", 50", and 72" bars in that mount. I'll buy another if need be. So what size mill should I buy? I've been looking at the Alaskan 36" mill, but considered getting one larger. I just don't want to buy too large or too small of a mill. What would you advise?
Is there anything else I'll need to purchase besides milling chain?
Yes, I'm a complete newbie in this department. And yes, you're welcome to tell me to go use the search function, lol![Clap :clap: :clap:](/styles/default/xenforo/clap.gif)
