Hi All, it's been a while since I've been here. I have a guy that wants me to mill some red and white oak stumps for him. I've never done that and was wondering,... what I'm in for and is it worth it?? I've thought about it but never done it.
Is he going to power wash (atleast twice) and trim them up for you? There is a lot of debris in stumps mostly ingrown rocks and dirt that will kill a band saw or chainsaw blade. If you can get past all the debris, stump wood is some really pretty stuff and some of it could be made into high dollar gun blanks...
+1. Figure on a lot of embedded debris in the stumps that you will not be able to remove. There are lots of blade replacements when milling stumps.
