Planking logs for woodwork

Planking logs for woodwork

Thought i'd do a little behind the scenes on some of the projects I'm  working on for Lost In Oak. 

I work as a forester for a number of large estates throughout Northumberland, this is where I'm able to source the material for woodworking. Here I'm working on planking up beech logs and Hazel logs; these logs will be used for multiple pieces such as live edge rustic shelving, chopping boards & outdoor furniture. 

It's no easy task as I don't currently have a milling attachment for my saw, but it certainly is honing my skills to try and cut as straight as possible, which errrr, works most of the time... 

Anyway, thanks for reading and keep checking back for updates on what these planks are used for! - Scott
