    Default Wanted. Someone to mill some timber

    There is a guy in Otford (near Wollongong) who wants a tree milled into planks. Small tree only 300 mm. To be done on site. He wants to keep the timber.

    Tree is still standing.

    can't help with a contact, but at a single tree still standing and only 300 mm diameter including bark, I suspect that his only option is to get the tree felled and then take the "log" to a miller.

    all up the costs for 4 or 5 usable boards is likely to be eye watering
    regards from Alberta, Canada
