I was at a friends house the other day and he has a pile of logs behind his house he cuts into fire wood. I was looking at a few of the maples he had and immediately saw the curl in one log. It’s about 25” in diameter and appears to have curl throughout most of the log. I’ve never had the opportunity to get a log like this sawn and wondering what is the best way to have it sawn. I hear quatersawn shows off the curl more?? I’m just wondering if that is the way to go or flat sawn to yield more lumber. I’m thinking of having it cut to 5/4 thickness. That would give me options depending on what I use it for in the future. Any thoughts/opinions would be appreciated. Thanks! -- Mike Chaffin - Past-Time Woodworks |
