milling thread

No, I think it was mostly regular chipper chain, but the guy isn't all that good at hand filing so he told me, and as I could see. I definitely would have filed it differently, lower depth gauges, but considering the rpm and hard wood, it cut at a decent rate. I can't remember the chain pitch. It might have been 1/2".
 
I like the look of that cedar log. You should see if they'll throw that in as a bonus ;^)
 
Quartersawn, it is known as lacewood.
The picture tells you why.
Excellent for turning big platters where you get the figuring in the bottom.
 
Sawing some stuff for a new home build. An arborist who wants to feature a variety of locally salvaged materials. A nice but short butt log that made some nice boards for paneling or flooring. Some bookmatched brace stock from a log I had in the firewood pile.

I wasn't sure if this should go in milling or timber framing, so I'll put the timbers here, and the finished project in timber framing. I've got to make a timber framed, hand hewn, entryway into a vendor booth for the forest products expo in Vermont for next week. First TF in a long time.
