I figured out how to mill that log with the chainsaw. Won't clutter up this thread with it, but I posted about the technique on my Shady's Stumps thread if anyone is interested.

Thanks again for the thoughts on ideas.

Funny that you mention chainsaw... I found this device a few days ago and thought about buying it. But I really don't have much use for it, and in the case of the material I use the waste of the curf size is not optimal for me.

If there was supposed to be a link or pic, it didn't show up.

I can actually see that coming in handy for me. Even the smaller logs I have that are too ungainly for the chainsaw or table saw, I could run one sid down a planer once or twice then use this.
Maybe something for tax season.

Not stand related, but wood working related.

I've been following this channel for a few years now, he's builds are impressive and mostly avantgarde, but there are some traditional as well. A few days ago he posted this video of the build of his new workbench and it was in my queue. I started watching it now and I thought you guys would appreciate it, as wood workers.

I've actually been wondering if there's enough interest to start just a general woodworking discussion, maybe in the Tea House. I always have questions, but feel bad blowing up the home page with stuff not directly related to bonsai.
Though I suppose cleaning out the rotted insides of some cottonwood burls may be of interest to people carving on trees with deadwood.🤷

Thoughts?

Are we thinking Tea House, or General Discussion because others might find tidbits useful for trees?
