I don't have a sawmill. Instead I know a man a few miles down the road who does. When I have a good yard tree I call him. No sawmill wants yard trees. He'll bring his Skidder over and remove the log. This tree was over 6 ft at the trunk. His sawmill can only handle 24 inches. I asked how does he split the log? I laughed when he said a pound of black power. He plunge cuts the end, packs in black power, lights a long fuse and boom. Google it on U-tube, many split logs with black power.
I have a 6 inch jointer and a 13 inch planner. Use jointer to get one side straight before I cut wood to width. Then run it through planner to flatten it out and uniform thickness. I used a 3 inch hole saw to make curves, split holes in half, then router on the edges.
I also have some homegrown red oak in my warehouse.
I have 3 large oak trees in a yard. If I ever need more oak, they will be going to sawmill. Right now trees aren't hurting anything.

At any rate we decided that a compression test was in order so we could verify the internal engine status. That way we wouldn't buy any tune up parts until we were sure that the engine was in reasonable mechanical condition. Our tests showed a fictional compression reading of 85, 80, 82 and 86 psi. That is well within a
