I was given two discs of wood from a black oak that is over 600 years old. I could only get the two disca. One is roughly 3-4 inches thick and approx 30 inches accross. Looks like a big platter. The other is about the same width but only 1-2 inches thick. I would like some advice on how to cut them for pen blanks. I have a band saw 6" capiticty. Also I have been told I can not use the center of the wood. Can any one tell me why?

After speaking with mayor I get to keep the thicker of the two slabs. I have included photo of slabs.
Redfish,
Thank you for the visual I think that is the way I will cut it.
Eagle,
Apparently your voodoo[}] is not as strong as you might hope.
I will be cutting today!!!
