    Log to marking gauge

    A brief progression of a red oak log turned into a marking gauge. This is a more recent vintage of logs off trees in my yard than became this gauge. De-bark by hand, started sealing the ends after my first trip through Checking City, and let dry as a full log because I\'m too lazy to saw into...

    Received free maple logs...now need advice on slicing them up!

    The neighbor across the street just cut down a large, beautiful maple tree. I was out recovering from surgery, so I wasn't able to get my hands on any of the large logs (plus I don't have a place to put them now, or a truck). However, after she saw me picking through the wormy split logs she...

    The sawyer was here the other day to size up my Walnut logs. Offered me $200 for the three large ones - he calculated 400 bf. While we were talking, he said that, to really get the primo walnut, I would need to take the logs to have them steamed to bring the dark color out into the (much...

I have sliced up many small logs with my band saw for boxes, etc., but I have no idea what to do with this. Is it useful for something besides firewood? I love small...
