| Summary: | slab off v phr The wharf sticks were the heaviest; some were over thirty feet long. I would cut these, slab off one side, then take off all the bark. If they were still too heavy to drag to the landwash, I would slab off more from the stick until it was light enough to drag the short distance. [Consider for new entry in DNE Sup] Don Bartlett: the log is placed on ground. The man uses ax to cut _the side_ of the log to slab it off, not the top. Thus he is able to stand and swing his ax vertically. (I.E., the bevel is not taken off the top of the log.) PRINTED ITEM DNE Sup G.M.
