I have an opportunuty to purchase some qtr sawn white oak, right off the blade at a great price.

More than anything I'm exciting about getting a chance to watch it being milled.

I plan to have a little cut @ 12/4, the rest at 6/4.

Question...

1) How much variance is there in the fleck from log to log? I'm assuming that as long as the log is cut properly I should get some decent figure (assumptions can be dangerous).

I'm new to this, can anyone offer me any advice?

When I get it home I'll sticker it in the shed for however long.

Thanks
Randy
