I finally remembered to bring my tablet up to the woodlot today!

here is the beginnings of my slabwood-to-firewood rack, made from slabwood, and a piece of scrap wood in the “V” (the decrepit vehicles in the background are on the adjoining lot):

I haven't heard from you in a while!!! I visited the Hancock Lumber mill in Bethel years ago when a friend was a wood buyer there. Both sides of the band were sharpened so they could cut on both front and back stroke.

Hi i kinda lost touch for a while but never forgot of tbn.Our mill has two circular headrigs most of the wood gets cut in big slabs or cants and goes through 5 baker band resaws all hooked up in tandom.for example a 6 by 12 cant goes in one end comes out other 6 _1 by 12s back to back wood all shift long.pretty impressive old school technology but we do real well with the mills and we keep everything like new working order.
