Terrifictim we have the 10" ASM 3 phase electric...it works great for us.  We don't have the slabber option but we just use a 3120 and a 5' Alaskan sawmill. 

We get a mixture of some good logs with a lot of bad logs lol...
Your slabbing choice is that just due to infrequent need for slabs or pretty easy to cut softwood with the alaskan or what? thanks.

We don't cut slabs that often so Alaskan works just fine for us.  It's usually around 7min to slab a 12' long piece around 30" wide.  Can't complain about that.  If you were cutting a whole log into slabs it might be a bit much.  We just take one or two then start sawing boards again.

B-W do you cut any hardwoods on the peterson 10" and how does that compare to cutting fir? more passes, slower, don't cut as wide etc would like to hear anything you can say about it.
