There was a fellow on the woodweb asking about chat rooms for us wood people.I told him about this forum because I feel it has a lot of knowledge,gets a lot of action and is a fun place to "chat"
The good people at woodweb felt that my post should be removed?
I even made Jeff mad and he didnt remove my post!
I took the woodweb out of my favorites and removed my self from there.Now that I have found this forum I dont need them anyhow.
Mike.

I have no love for woodweb either. They need to re-think how they treat people if they want to stay in business.

I used to go over to the Woodweb a good bit. In fact, it's how I found out about the FF. Bibbyman had a link to the FF on a response he made, and I've been coming here ever since. Seems that in the past year things have been going downhill over there. I guess that they wouldn't allow a link to over here anymore.

I usta think the way you guys do but I read where one of the 'professionals' there is taking flatsawn lumber and resawing it into quartersawn boards. Now that's something I need to learn

old3dogg · « **Reply #7 on:** March 19, 2004, 02:06:49 pm »

Bro.
When you figure that out will you let the rest of know how you did it?
I could get out of this kiln dry stuff and start sawing for a living!

Bro. Noble · « **Reply #8 on:** March 19, 2004, 02:11:40 pm »

I'm thinking he must have awfully big lumber or else is satisfied with really small boards

old3dogg · « **Reply #9 on:** March 19, 2004, 02:18:04 pm »

On another note about WW.What ever you do .dont complain about an advertizer over there!
That is a big no no!

Jeff · « **Reply #10 on:** March 19, 2004, 02:44:38 pm »

Well, I aint going to allow sponsors to be banged up here either any more then I would allow a member to. I sure don't fault them for that. There is absolutely no reason to bad mouth a sponsor or other member here in public unless you got an axe to grind and at the Forestry Forum we grind our axes in the shed. Our sponsors will go the ten thousanth mile to take care of customers and they are here most everyday in case you have a question. We have behind the scenes abilitys to contact them and get information using the instant messages or the full members board.

It makes sense for any board to protect thier sponsors and advertisers from a public flogging.

Fla._Deadheader · « **Reply #11 on:** March 19, 2004, 02:49:09 pm »

The complaint dept. here should also be a no, no.
It is always better to try to resolve the problem privately. If that doesn't work, then a mild "heads-up" would be the way to go. No-one wants to get "taken", but, with todays employees, there MAY be a problem that management is un-aware of.

Besides, whadda I know???

SHOOT, Jeff done beat me to it

old3dogg · « **Reply #12 on:** March 19, 2004, 02:53:52 pm »

Jeff B.
And I dont blame you for that.
I wasnt the one complaning on the WW about an advertiser I was only offering advice on how I would handle the situation but my post got pulled.
I had trouble with the same company and was telling the complaner how I handled the problem.
Im looking to the left and I dont see the advitiser.

old3dogg · « **Reply #13 on:** March 19, 2004, 02:56:20 pm »

I need to get rid of that darn "z"

Den Socling · « **Reply #14 on:** March 19, 2004, 03:26:17 pm »

Hey Mike,

I was thinking of suggesting to that guy that he come here but I knew it wouldn't fly. Did you tell him in email.

WoodWeb really has been on a slide. Really lame post. Was going to elaborate but I guess I'll stop there.

Den

PS That 4/4 RO will really take a wackin'. I can dry it as fast as in a RF kiln.

old3dogg · « **Reply #15 on:** March 19, 2004, 03:37:04 pm »

Hi Den.
I did send him an email to come here.Hope he does.
We decided to re dry the 4/4 RO in a vac kiln.
The 60% MC stuff turned out great.I took a few over to the D-Plant and ran them through the sander and WOW!
Even the sap wood didnt crack.Maybe I should flood all of my kilns during drying!
Up next is 4/4 Popular and 8/4 RO after that.
I have 4 days to dry the Pop.and 2weeks to dry the 8/4 RO.
I have a feeling that Im not going to be out of work long.
The boss says that if China wants this stuff we will send them all that they can handle!

I still browse over at WW just to see whats going on, I very seldom post on there cause I'm just a p-on. But when I first started the sawing thing, I did learn alot, but then again most of what I learned was from the same guys thats on The Forestry Forum.

RevCant · « **Reply #17 on:** March 19, 2004, 05:15:01 pm »

Well, I joined up here because I got pxxxed at the WW. There was a particular thread on sawing where the "Doctor" was expressing an opinion. Someone challenged his opinion, and within 1/2, that post had been deleted.

I'd been a "guest" here for over a year and a half. That day I ponied up and gave Jeff all my darkest secrets to become a "member."

Seldom go back to WW now. Great forum Jeff.

So here I am

DanG · « **Reply #19 on:** March 19, 2004, 07:06:12 pm »

Your typing skills are coming right along, Jim.

You've been blathering on for 275 posts now, and I can usually tell what you are talking about.

I, for one, am enjoying it.

J_T · « **Reply #20 on:** March 19, 2004, 07:52:57 pm »

Thanks Dan G Wish I was closer like to see that row auto's and other goodies you got stashed around .

BW_Williams · « **Reply #21 on:** March 19, 2004, 07:58:36 pm »

Mike, I took WW out of my favorites file about a month ago, I will not participate in a forum that treats my friends like they do. The "professor" over there would have a coronary if he saw how amauteurs like myself do out West! Life's too short to waste on people like that. BWW

shopteacher · « **Reply #22 on:** March 20, 2004, 03:40:48 am »

I only got time for one forum and this is it. Like it or not I'm staying and so is Butch. ( He might not like, but he ain't got no say in the matter

).

oldsaw · « **Reply #23 on:** March 20, 2004, 08:57:38 am »

This place is full of the best people I've ever encountered on a forum. A lot of stuff gets covered in the course of a day and all I ever seem to see is "nice". Not mean, spiteful, or posts designed to get someones goat.

Jeff, you run a good playground here. All these kids play well with others. I like it here.

etat · « **Reply #24 on:** March 20, 2004, 10:49:53 am »

Somebody else mentioned FF on the same thread, they bounced that post too. The administrator finished with a post about legitimate discussion.

Fla._Deadheader · « **Reply #25 on:** March 20, 2004, 11:27:16 am »

If the FF can't have a legitimate discussion, does that make us "illegitimate"

shopteacher · « **Reply #26 on:** March 20, 2004, 11:27:46 am »

Well, there's your answer old3dog. Youse asking illegitimate questions.

old3dogg · « **Reply #27 on:** March 20, 2004, 11:56:08 am »

I didnt even ask a question.Just gave a guy some advice and that was to check this site out.
Woodweb?What is woodweb?

Corley5 · « **Reply #28 on:** March 20, 2004, 02:20:11 pm »

I went to WW a while back just because I hadn't been there in a LONG time and was curious. I haven't been back since

I had a disagreement with the good Dr there one time. He tried telling someone that bigtooth and quaking aspen wasn't prone to warping even during drying

. I've been around a good bit of aspen and the kind we grow in N Mi. warps when it dries that's why we build with it when it's green and still straight. It will also warp right off the saw. Did anyone read his article in the last Sawmill and Woodlot Mag? Did you understand it?

jimbo · « **Reply #29 on:** March 29, 2004, 01:06:40 pm »

just wondering how one gets to being a Full menber, i keep seeing Post mover to full menbers board the you hit a dead end when you try to go their ?

beenthere · « **Reply #30 on:** March 29, 2004, 01:20:05 pm »

Jimbo
When you get there, you will know what the "dead end" is.

In the meantime, enjoy your freedom and enjoy the forum. Your input is appreciated, I am sure, by all.
Be happy.

Hmmm? dead end? am I missing something? maybe I am

old3dogg · « **Reply #31 on:** March 29, 2004, 03:18:31 pm »

Youre almost there jimbo.
Ya gotta get 2 of them pine trees.
I think it is based on how many post you make.Could be wrong.Been wrong before.

Jeff · « **Reply #32 on:** March 29, 2004, 03:23:25 pm »

Your almost right. Getting into the full members section has something to do with the amount of posts but not everything. Could be length of time you are a member, could be the number of times you have visited, could be...

Whatever it is, its not automatic to get in anywhere. Quit that when someone decided to try to make 50 posts with just a smiley in it in order to see. Dat Dont work no more.

old3dogg · « **Reply #33 on:** March 29, 2004, 03:36:56 pm »

Just kidding Jeff!
Really I am!
