The biggest log furthest from you in the picture is a perfect candidate for my Alaskin 2 Saw Mill.

If you want to work up some Valley Oak I have a ton of it already slabbed and dried. Most is 8/8 and some is 12/8 and is 20 to 26" across (coffee table or bar top material).

It checks a little bit more than the Red oak I have but not as bad the the black oak.
