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!
UPDATE! A year (or more) has passed and the wood is dry and stable. To discover what Nick does with it, see the sequel at: [ Ссылка ] .
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 our store at: [ Ссылка ] .
