Transporting a circular saw blade using a safe method, e.g. by hook and rag.

Blue stain or sapstain are terms used to describe wood that shows blue to greyish-black stains on its surface, caused by wood-staining fungi. It is considered a fault in timber and will be taken into account when sorting. The fault is that the discolouration of the wood makes it unsuitable for some applications.

A board that is lying flat, with one or both ends slightly lifted off the ground forming a curve or bow.

A deviation in the face of a piece of timber where the edges curve in towards or away from one another.

This is the lower edge of a roof surface that overhangs the walls. Eaves can be open, closed or flush.

The upright side members of a door or window frame.

A vertical dividing member of a window frame that separates the lights from each other.

The heart centre of the timber, consisting mainly of soft tissue.

A push stick is used for safety reasons when guiding wood being cut through a circular saw.

Installed at the rear of the saw blade, this safety device reduces the risk of ‘kick back’ and accidental contact with the back of the saw blade.

Shakes are cracks in the timber which appear due to excessive heat, frost or twisting due to wind or poor nutrientcontent of the soil during the growth of a tree. Shakes can also be a result of seasoning. Depending upon the shape and the positions shakes can be classified as star shake, cup shake, ring shakes and heart shakes.
