Sunday, January 23, 2011. Beyond the sunset, oh blissful morning. When with our Savior, heaven is begun. Earth stroll is ending, oh glorious dawning. Beyond the sunset when day is done.

Saturday, April 23, 2011. Not all of Spring's green is leaves. Ct orders for green hard maple. We sell some. Other green lumber, mostly to bowl turners who like to work the product while it is still very wet. This lumber, however, is destined to be steamed and bent, which is why dried stock just won't do. Our spring maple is going to become Turkish bows. While archery has become a popular past-time with many, true enthusiasts craft their own weapons. We sell some osage orange. Friday, April 22, 2011.

Monday, May 28, 2012. One day last fall, Nirloy. The ground these trees were growing in is filled with flint, which is a very hard stone. All of these have to come off before going through the mill saw. With a pressure washer borrowed from my friend Ted. After removing a few final embedded flint-stones with the small hatchet I was using, the log was ready for its ride on the mill carriage. Of it in action.) I had to cut more of the bell off of the remaining root crown to get it stabilized and enable ...

Smith Lumber: February 2011
http://blog.smith-lumber.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 20, 2011. Of Spring are nice. I wish there were more to be seen right about now. Unfortunately, Winter is rearing its head again here in central PA, so- for a little while at least- we'll just have to enjoy the Burkholders' little bloom. There are some other signs, however, to brighten the dark of late Winter. We've been enjoying the signs being shared by Michael Wurm. Keeper of the "Old Charm Bed and Breakfast".

http://blog.smith-lumber.com/2011/06/tale-of-two-cities-and-their-shows.html
Monday, June 6, 2011. A Tale of Two Cities (and their shows). It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness," so says Dickens in the opening line of his classic. We at Smith Lumber have recently experienced just that of which he opined. We completed our second retail show on Saturday and found that not all wood craft shows are created equal. Our first-ever show was the Mid-Atlantic Artistry in Wood show on April 9, sp. Show I emailed Andy DiP...

Saturday, March 26, 2011. Popular Wood. No, I mean Poplar (or not.). Several years ago, we received a message through the eBay system from a very irritated eBay. User He was not a customer of ours, nor was he intending to buy anything from us. Instead, he just wan. Ted to complain that we used the scientific names for our lumber in our listings. He wanted to know if that was there to impress the "wood weenies." (His term, not mine.) I explained to. We often sell tulip poplar. As windfalls or fire, or whe...
