I have a 12” diameter Acacia log to cut into planks. The tree was cut a couple months ago and has been outside with the ends painted. I have not cut a log into planks before and need to know what bandsaw blade to use. I probably will not be doing a lot of resawing, but this log has promise.
Which blade should I buy for it this job?
Is there any concern cutting into the log this soon?

What kind and size band saw do you have?
Sorry for the delay, saw belongs to a friend. Saw is a Grizzly G0636X, 17" with a 160" blade.
depends
I have that saw its before it became the x2 but the same saw. I used timberwolfe blades and they are great. I converted it to a resaw BS, and put a laguna carbide tipped blade that's the best but its expensive. If you decide to go that route join sawmill creek as a member you get a huge discount. Good luck I've had mine over 6 years good say for an import.
thanks
Any issues on slabbing a log in only 2 months?
