Look up the Woodmizer website. They make small portable saw mills and
as I recall they have a listing of all the various folks around the
country that have these and are sawing logs so you can find someone in
your area that might want the logs or might give you q proce to saw
them, etc. I'd do it quick because there may be some care you need to
give the logs like waxing or painting the ends to stop them from
drying too fast, etc.

About a month of so ago, my neighbor had a big cedar tree in his front
yard cut down. (At least, I'm almost certain it's a cedar.) I talked the
tree removal guys to leave the two biggest chunks of trunk-- about seven
feet long, a foot to two feet in diameter, roughly-- in my front yard.
I'd hoped to get it sawn into planks.

However, that's looking less and less likely. They're big and heavy, and
so I'd like to make the trunks available to anyone in the Philly area
who'd be willing to take them. I'm not asking for anything in exchange,
but if you have a sawmill and a kiln, I'd love to take maybe one or two
1-inch boards in trade.

I'm located in West Philadelphia, and if you're interested, email me at
