Hey there-
Not sure this is the right forum, but...
I'm an arborist, so I occasionally come across some nice logs. I've started saving some, and right now I've got some beautiful red oak logs to get milled. They're over 30 inches in diameter, three logs about 16 feet, perfectly straight, even rings. I'm really very new at woodworking, I'm wanting to play around with different furniture projects, not even sure what yet, but with that much wood, I'll never get through it anyway. So I'm wondering what multi-purpose size should I get it milled in? 5/4 is what I'm hearing, though I might want a few beefy chunks for...well...something, I don't know. Any good suggestions would be welcome. Thanks.
