A guy I work with is a Landscaper on the side. He found some large black walnut trees that had been cut down by a road crew and taken to one of the crews field. A friend of mine and I got these logs and his Father-in-Law has a bandsaw mill. He is going to slab them up for us, howerver, he has never done any walnut and has some questions about it. First, he heard somewhere that you should let walnut sit for a while (2 years for the size logs we got) before running them through the mill. Second, he was wanting to plain saw the whole lot, but I think quarter sawn would be better. Your opinions mater so, please let me know. Thanks.
