Hi, sorry can't help you. Just feel your pain, I have one stump sitting at my place that is too big for my mill. Cut beautiful boards out of the branches though. Worth cutting up every bit of it, but where all the branches meet, there was all kind of scrap metal grown into the tree. Maybe have a good look and try to scrape some of the compost out of the top of the stump, if there is crap in there too, maybe not worth messing around with.

Hi, if there's any still available, let me know. I don't have a mill, just a chainsaw but I would definitely like to take some off your hands.
Call me on 0432 616 608 or PM me. I can't do it this weekend but anytime next week is fine.
Cheers,
John.

I can't see that fitting in anyones mill. Even bigger then mine, have thought out a plan to mill it with my Lucas which involves moving the mill in the process but am (at this stage) not willing to sacrifice blades on all the junk between the branches. Your pictures look very familiar.

Nice Truck I think thats the kind of log that makes a lucas a great choice in mills ( oh look I said some thing positive ) I d hate to see what could turn up in those branches. Your log looks a hell of alot cleaner Bernt,

Makes me wonder, has anyone here ever tackled one of those stumps? Maybe with a chainsaw?
