Milling an Incredible Figured English Walnut Log into Slabs

This is an incredible english walnut that we milled. It was getting pretty close to maxing our LX250 at 50 inches across at the widest. It was just under seven feet in length as well. These were all milled into 12/4 or 3 inch thick live edge slabs.

Beeswing figure throughout the sap wood on these slabs which I have only ran into with bastogne and english walnut logs. It does occur in black and claro as well, it is very rare and especially beautiful when finished.

Bark inclusion heading down the center of most of the slabs, as well as some 3/16 inch steel which we hit a dozen times as we got through the log. These will see atleast three years of air drying before they hit the kiln.
