I have a new respect for those that mill.
In no way did I ever thing it would be so time/fuel/energy consuming.
My buddy @MustangMike came today and expertly dropped a few trees fo me. I picked a bad first milling victim, the 75' red oak he dropped. The rounds were 32" in diameter and 12+ feet long. Milling done with the 066 that @Mastermind built for me. I tuned her a bit fat and ran 24:1 Motul 800 just to be safe. Got 2 nice boards before I hit a rock and toasted my chain.
It was a super fun day nonetheless. It continues today and tomorrow.
