Kevin, with what you listed for tools that you own to do this with, I suggest you leave it be. It's just to dangerous to try to mill this size of piece, with your tools. It would be best to try to find someone with a bandsaw, maybe they will mill it for you.

Ok Great ! i just wanted to throw it out there and see my options.Maybe a small piece for a key chain  will do.I had wanted to make   box for jewerly but to much involved ,Thanks everyone.I don't ;like dangerous stuff any more.Among other stupid things i've  done the worst was taking down the 50,000 volt  power line in the middle of super bowl  sunday back then.I had to leave quick cause if the wire didn't kill me the neighbors would have to miss their  program.It did blow me off the aluminum ladder right after the front of my face was full of fire flies in the day time!

I normally use my band saw but it has a 6" cut heighth. I have rer-sawm wood on my table saw but at 10 inches

yoiu would have to finish the cut by hand. Lots of work. If you have a mill close to you may ask them to slice it down. I understand they do this fairly cheap.

I'm not waiting a year and my band saw is a mini one thanks!

If you have access to a chain saw you could cut it down to manageable sizes.  But, in my opinion a table saw is not for milling ruff wood.  Someone with a band saw would make the whole process easier and safer.   Drying is, like mentioned a long process. 

The tree did cut easy ,Maybe i could set up a chainsaw to cut the logs? Ill think about that one,Thanks
