Todays Project - What did you do today?

[TomG]

Thanks for the in depth explanation Greg (even a pic!).

I can definitely see where the best quarter sawn boards are those closest to the center of the log. I believe the best wood is obtained by rift sawing, where the boards are cut radially from the log. That way the grain is perpendicular to the surface on all boards. Unfortunately that technique also produces the most waste.
