Thanks George. I've been working with wood for many years and never fully understood the differences between these two methods of cutting lumber. In a few minutes you very clearly answered all my questions. Excellent!

Well George I've never quite grasp the differences between these two different sawn methods before until now. Its very simple the way you've explained it, other folks have complicated the day lights out of it, so that I could never quite get it, until now. Great Job on explaining these differences thanks. George.

Yes, the plain sawing process inherently produces some pieces that have quarter sawn characteristics.

@CommercialForest 5 жыл бұрын

A concise & excellent explanation of the process. Kudos! Many woodworkers don't realize that the quarter-sawing process can produce a percentage of plain-sawn boards when the grain rings are more like ovals than a perfect circles. The same ruler lines on a less uniform cookie would show how this happens.

Great video. A thing I would add is that vertical grain as in quartersawn is better for application where wood is bent, such as bows or for steaming and bending. Flat sawn wood will more easily delaminate and break with bending stress. That's also why tool handles have the grain oriented direction of strike.

echoing pretty much everyone here, this is an EXCELLENT video. No one could ever explain to me how my favorite wood (quarter-sawn white oak) was produced. As a bonus, I was wondering what they did with the pieces that weren't perpendicular and then BOOM - that's rift sawn wood. again, great job to all involved!
