    What to do with a giant burl

    I had a buddy pick up a big cottonwood burl for me. Im wondering what to do with it. I have a chainsaw mill that will cut 48" however this is wider then that and I can't seem to find a sawmill in the area that can slab it. What would you do with it turning blanks, partail slabs, boards?Resized_20220207_155458.jpgResized_20220207_114105.jpgResized_20220207_153816.jpeg

    Google Matthew Cremona or search him on YouTube. He is in greater Minneapolis area.Giant horizontal bandmill. He could give you some advice.
