In theory, you can split the log down the center both ways, but handling a full quarter of a log is very difficult. This photo shows the cuts that we will make with the WoodMizer sawmill - producing 4 smaller cants and six straight quartersawn boards from the center of the log. I marked the cuts for the photo, but usually just measure up from the center one to three boards and make the top cut first, push off the cants,
& proceed down the pattern cutting boards.
