Have to calculate for waste , slabs off the edge . Log usually sawed into a cant which means it’s squared then boards are sawed off that . Rest is waste . Sometime u can get couple boards off edge . Most of waste is toward butt of log because it’s bigger diameter.

I don't understand the need for charts.
If a board foot is 12x12x1 then it's 144 cubic inches of wood.
Can't you just take: Pi x the radius (in inches) squared and get the cross sectional area of the log then multiply that by the length of the log in inches and then divide by 144?
Or is there some drop calculated in those charts? Doesn't work that way. You have to slab it off and square it up. Then you have the kerf width of each cut. Lot of waste of the round log. There are the different cuts also, rift , quarter sawn and plain that come into play . There is also the factor that some Sawyers maximize the log better than others. Maybe BrentM will chime in , he's a hardwood log buyer/ lumber broker. Or member TWinters, he's the best Sawyer in these parts.

$.60 a ft around here by a portable bandsaw mill. Walnut is harder to saw maybe little more for that but still cheaper than buying it
