Resawing large flitches to recover a slab
Hi all,
just thought i would post some pics of a recent job i did for a customer who had a large hollow bluegum.After setting up we decided to get a couple of slabs off the top in pic 2 which are 6.5m in length,in pic 3 you can see a large flitch laying on the ground from the previous days milling which is abuot 4.5m long.Pic 4 is the same flitch that was picked up by a crane truck and placed upside down on a now flat surface.Pic 5 is cutting out some 4x4 posts which will go toward the new deck he was building and the other pics are of the end product which is a 80mm slab. while the crane truck was there we also re sawed a flitch from a 6m iron bark.Another happy customer.
Regards,
Rude.
