Episode 20 Trees as Crops

Plantation Forests are Managed Like Crops

This episode I catch up on some more questions submitted via email.  There is a good variety covering pest control, methods to identify alternate species, stickering your lumber, and of course, smoking ALL the meats.

Tales from the Yard

With talk of finding alternate species, I share a project about a wide Teak floor that turned into a wide Iroko floor project.

Feedback

  • Tim found a log and now has 300 board feet of Cherry
  • Atmospheric pressure is 14.7 psi, not thousands of pounds

emails

  • Bob asks if trees are managed like crops
  • Jacob saw some weird looking lumber core plywood
