Band Saw Lumber-- Sawing Firewood into Usable Boards.

If your band saw is big enough to do resawing, it’s big enough to do sawyering -- you can turn tree limbs and small logs into usable lumber. Nick shows how you can cut a log that’s larger than the your band saw’s capacity into wide, flat boards. And just as important, he explains how to assemble a small stack of lumber and wire it together so the lumber will air-dry evenly and all the boards will turn out straight and true. Amazingly, this doesn’t require complex jigs to turn your band saw into a saw mill -- just a scrap of plywood! If you’d like to know more about sawyering and drying your own lumber, you might like to read Nick’s book, “Wood and Woodworking Materials.“ It’s available from the Workshop Companion store at: .
