Good work there Mr Roe. One trick I picked up from Middlefield Custom Sawmill is on the 180 flip is to lift it up and put one inch stickers on the bunks that way the log (not sure if it's a cant at that point) can be slid over the short nub stops a couple inches to give the effect like it was before with the belly hanging over the roller stops. Of course you may want to say a quick prayer that the cant doesn't slide over further when cutting 😁

Thanks for the comment. Yea I have heard of it. Someone on woodmizer fb said they built some pieces that slid onto the nubs and get the edge of the wood but get you right up to the guide roller.

How much you getting for one of these slabs? Or are you making furniture your self out of it?

I would sell some of it. Green I would sell it for$3 a board foot so about $140 each. The plan is to air dry for a couple of years then kiln dry and build my daughter a coffee table, she just loves mine. Then build myself a kitchen table. Or build the table and sell it.
