milling thread

[PCTREE]

Where did you find blued pine in CA ??��

Wish I could find more time to play with my mill...

 

[Dave Shepard]

Nice slabs. I was just out running my mill. Too hot.

Rob and I are sort of running diffy ways these days. We continue to be business partners and he participates in some tree jobs. I am slowly moving him into and selling him as milling to clients. Once I get the loader I want, he will be milling more than tree work.

Nice slabs. I'm thinking I'll make some oak slab work benches in the shop with the smaller ones!

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Pics of those please.
Love what you set Steve up with. Very cool.

Hello. I was looking for a wood working thread to show off my rad new bench.....just gotta stain the side table/leg rest......

Just being goofy.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Nice!

 

[sotc]

Sexy

 

[pantheraba]

Groovy!!!

 

[woodworkingboy]

Interesting concept!

Cypress block with milled street cherry tree slabs.
The steel is from that tree I did when I cut them off the magnolia in chinatown.

Gonna stain more, It's outdoor furniture anyway.

I have quite the slab collection going....Ton of redwood.

Back on topic, There is a good sized pile of redwood logs in the park from a failed tree.

I'd have to upgrade to the 395 to tackle it....It's right on the road too.

Nice!

 

[Bodean]

Right?!

Except I'm as dumb as a rock with Carpentry or woodworking. My dad was a roofer. More brawn than brain.

Most important thing is it's fun and I like doing it. Plus, when party time comes, more seats for guests.

 

[pantheraba]

Do it for the guests!!! Cool you are getting to work with the wood like that...good for the soul.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Deva, if you ever need some pine, just let me know. Bring the truck, we'll do lunch or dinner or something.

 

[FireFighterZero]

Mathematical!

 

[Bodean]

Sure thing.

A little table I made for some in-laws for Christmas.

Used aluminum legs and router ed the recess...how do you treat aluminum legs? Paint them or stain?

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Polish.. I think chrome polish would work.. like for cars.
Looks cool Deva

 

[squisher]

Super cool!

I have oak (rare, here) to mill. No projects in mind.

Should I go for 8' or longer? 3" thick or different?

Thoughts?

 

[sotc]

Milled up some cribbing a week or so back. Now I gotta get a beam saw

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Nice!

What is the deal with two sizes of power heads on a double-edged bar? I have an MS 660 and MS 460... Can I run them together without any special considerations?
