When it comes to actual sawing, this depiction is not very good. No mill or even hobby sawer will be able to ceate the depicted stepped cuts. Even the plain sawn depiction requires way too many log rolls to complete, but the problem is a log isn't cylindrical, so the loss would be problematic.


We have several local sawyers that will do it. I have 1000 bd ft of walnut cut this way and another 800-1000 of cherry, all stickered and about ready to use after almost 2 yrs.
