Chainsaw milling is an absolute game-changer for DIY woodworkers and lumber enthusiasts! But here’s a pro tip: your first cut is crucial—if it’s not perfectly flat, the rest of your cuts will suffer.

Why the ladder? The ladder is there to start the first cut. You need a flat surface to make the first cut and this is a great option.
