In doing so, you also eliminate the "black knots" from dead branches..

Jesus, calm down.

"Is it possible that Emerald was even more polished and precise than usual explaining,...." Yes. She may have been working off a script, which is fine.

That had never occurred to me, but Emerald's explanation made it both obvious and easy to understand.

Never realised this either.

emerald is a jewel, she lives up to the birth name boss man and boss lady gave her on the day she was born. clear / clearish pine boards are hard to find. it is so hard to find that we up here in connecticut have wide long clear pine imported from old growth forests from ( drum roll in the background ) the land of rutin tutin polutin pukin putin and the discovery channel show siberian cut. the show did not have to many shows but the russian Communist dictator and his american republican counterpart a mr dick potato head (a dick tater or dictator) a trumpster dumpster. and to prove that i am not a politician but want to party neutral. government issued GI Joe biden promised to withdraw peace keeping troops from Afghanistan against advice from military advisors. dum dum biden withdrew the peace keeping folks at a high cost of american lives and and Afghan folks and the impact on a generation women who are or will be abused by the talibani bananas. with the withdrawal of peace keepers the talbani claimed victory over russians and american infidels. this might have left putin with with the idea that america is lossing the capability to fight for what is right and that is evident with dumpster trumpster disrespecting veterans for being captured by enemy forces. trump pulled his dick-tater-chip or ship by disrespecting honorable senator air force pilot john mccain who was shot down over vietnam and served a living hell on earth in a pow camp in north vietnam. i heard of fly boy man or person named john mccain from another navy veteran who was on board of the us forestal when pilot john mccain crashed landed on the deck of the forestal when micro waves caused problems of safely landing john's fighter jet. the veteran who told me this and i have the greatest respect for john mccain. and no respect for dumpster trumpster. in the scale of heroes and zeroes. senator mccain gets hero status. the donald scores a zero status. sorry for humble opinion. on more thought maybe she can ask grandpa about the 60's and if he had hear the merry minuet sung by the kingston trio. they sang that we should be thankful and tranquil and calm. man has the mushroom shaped cloud and we will all be blown away. hard to believe it is over 60 years ago and we still could be blown away. by the putin support scheme of nuclear weapons or blowing up nuclear plants like Chernobyl with conventional weapons. no win all lose situation. i hope that i am wrong. i got to much fear. we have that mad mad world.

What did you learn from today's video?

Looked automatic to me, not an operator in sight.

But that's with the grain. But if I stomp on a stick from the side, it usually breaks at the knot.

Is the hypothetical type. Pretty juvenile in your hypothesis, almost like we need a hypoallergenic to void out this highly educating word of the day hypothesi. But at least we all now know you are way too overqualified for what you actually do.

Are you referring to kiln dried S4S ?

@@bushmaster2936 KD is normal,, S4S is not always the case. Two of my local mills will surface 2 sides for me and give me a straight rip on one edge. That's all I need. Even the S2 really only needs S1. If the back face still has a bit of saw marks,, as long as the total thickness is true to my needs,, I'm good. Most of my big work is long behind me. (I'm old.) The one house,, almost 30 years ago,, just shy of 120 openings (lotsa windows) and a pair of French doors for the entry, each 3'0" X 8'0"X 2.25 thick. If you wish to spec your own,, and you are in the midwest, L.L. Johnson, Charlotte, Michigan. They can pre mill it for you any way you like,, as large and order or as small an order as you need. Devereau Sawmill (sp?) west of Lansing, larger orders. Both have mills and kilns.
