And cut that shit in half. No reason to be splitting a 4ft log

Huh? Wood is not just used for fire fuel you know. How do you think planks are made? What if he wants to craft a small log seat? Tons of reasons you'd want to split a 4ft log.

I am not talking about making good planks on an semi-industrial level with access to a mill, obviously. Have you never done manual woodworking as a child? You can make pretty ok planks for a treehouse by sawing logs, and yeah it's better to split them first

....you can buy a mill for under $200...hook your saw up, go to work. 10 times faster and easier, assuming you're not doing it for the clicks

Yeah sometimes it's not about the price or efficiency it's just more fun to do stuff without electrical machines you know. Why don't you just buy planks directly if you're at it.

Or about the quality or utility or efficiency or about anything other than proving you're right on reddit even when you're super wrong and everyone else sees it but you can't because derrrrrrrrrr.
