I got another walnut log needing sawed into gunstock blanks....
Stock blanks are best cut individually with a chain saw. Once you are into a bandsaw mill the with a high quality log the notion comes in to just cut it and sort it once it is done... that always fails on the logs really worth cutting into blanks.
The old saying goes something like cut the very best blank you can visualize in the log... then cut the second best...
If you cannot visualize what is there it is probably just lumber...
