    If you like that, search Youtube for videos by Matthew Cremona. He's a woodworker who also knows his way around fabrication and is an urban sawyer as well. He's reclaimed many tree trunks, some of which are huge, and sawn them into slabs that are now drying in stacks along side his garage for future projects. His bandsaw mill built in his driveway is the biggest that I've ever seen and his custom log retrieval trailer is quite functional and really clever, and currently he has v 2.0 under construction incorporating features that he learned were needed in the new trailer.

    If you can't make it precise make it adjustable.

    There's some beautiful slabs in that bunch! With all the burls I bet they're really interesting!
