Sawed some custom pine boards yesterday, I believe its the biggest log i have cut on this mill, for good reason too, as it is a manual mill. got some nice 14''x 16' boards.

this was a custom job. I believe it's going to be used as flooring.

If your customer is gona dry them before they put them down, I would recommend plenty of stickers...no more than 16 inchs apart and then get some weight on top of it.  Those wide boards are gona try and cup just a bit.  Banjo
Never explain, your friends don't need it, and your enemies won't believe you any way.

you bet, wrestling a 16' er is a task, these should make some nice flooring,, I most always sticker what I saw, but no doubt these should be stickered as mentioned by the customer, with weight on top as well,  that is a very unique looking log, and should make some fabulous flooring.
only have a few chain saws I'm not suppose to use, but will at times, one dog Dolly, pretty good dog, just not sure what for yet,  working on getting the gardening back in order, and kinda thinking on maybe a small bbq bizz,  thinking about it,
