Incidently,this stuff is probably the nicest timber to mill...cuts like butter,but isn't furry..the blade glides through it..turning it must be a joy too...One thing i have noticed is that the colour of the wood changes from white to pinky brown within minutes of milling,so will post some pics of some fresh cut stuff...

Only milled 3 sections so far,and although they were under compression,were relatively straight..the few large fork sections will produce something special,i think.The colour changes within minutes of coming off the saw,from white/caramel to pink/ brown...as i have said,it cuts like butter(when theres no metal),and i noticed no spring in the logs whilst milling either..MM
