LOGGING PILE

Inspiration Logging I am always sad when I hear, or hear about, trees being cut down. Who lived there? Did they get hurt? Were they home? I am assured, however, that it is all for the best. Thinning trees helps to promote new tree growth. Humans need wood for shelter, fuel and paper. Woodland areas have to be cleared to make way for progress. The fallen remains of the tree create a new home for some other lucky woodland resident. The parts that are not used eventually decay and form rich, luxurious soil. And I get to rummage through logging landing sites for fun pieces of wood to create with. I guess it all works out?

BITS AND PIECES. Once a tree has been cut down for shipment to a sawmill it is stripped of its top and all its branches. The tops and branches are left in the woods. When the trunks are clean they skid them to a landing location. The landing is where they are further trimmed and prepared for processing at a sawmill. Each log is cut to a specific length and all burls and other abnormalities are sliced off so that the it is smooth and uniform (the bark remains). Saw dust flies, chunks drop... and Here's where I come in!
