You did just fine with the picture. I like your office too.

It may be that the only "stress" in that workplace might be inside a few logs.
Nice photo, and the sticking and stacking look great.
What do you use to move the lumber around? (hint: more photos please ;) )

Those stacks look like one long group of boards. Are you milling 24-26 ft lumber or is that an optical illusion as to the length?

Nice view and enjoying what you are doing; how much better does it get.

nice job stickering!!

Lawg,

I have same question as Pine. How long are those boards? I'm impressed.

Lawg Dawg · January 25, 2015, 04:05:25 AM

Those boards are the standard 16'6". SYP. I move all my lumber/logs with that old 4000 JD tractor, with FEL.

Thanks Corey

LD--I predict you will live a long life being in such a stress-free environment

. Beautiful location & great set-up. Question: why cut cants, remove and store, then re-load onto mill? I find that because I have so many wood varieties and work alone, it's faster to simply cut what I have into what I know my customers will come for: 2 x stock; 1 x's; 4 x 4's and 6 x 6's ; live edge. Also, if I store cants they tend to dry partially before I get to them and saw with more stress. Thanks & all the best, Rob.

It's just something I'm trying right now. I have better results with pine doing it this way, when the pine logs sit for too long in our humid environment, the bugs and blue stain set in pretty quick. I can deal with the "stress" in the cants better than the worms and mold in them.

Thanks, Corey

I find stickering to be very therapeutic!

Unfortunately it has nothing to do with Sawing...but this is the view from my office in the summer.
