IMG_5180.jpg this is a crude picture i would like to cut a quarter out of the log so that it can be mounted on the wall and give the appearance of being a structural post. Has any one done some thing similar? has any one got any ideas about how to cut a log truly so that it would fit snugly and be straight and plumb when installed. Currently i am thinking about putting a template on each end and running a chalk like and then cutting inside the line by a half inch or so with a skill saw and then deeper with a chain saw. the sneaking up on the lines with a power planer. any discussion/help is welcome
