| We cut most of the log sections to 13'6" since that's the longest beam length we need. This log has just had the first crown shaved off on top.  |  | Two crowns have been taken off (left and bottom). Now we're working on the top, taking off a few 1/2" slabs for siding before we get down to the width we need across the top surface.  | 
          
            | On to the next log. Dave stands behind the controls while the blade carriage moves along on its own.  |  | Another 1/2" slab cut finished.  | 
          
            | Time to roll this one. |  | Taking off the last crown to make this beam square. |
