Hi there, very interesting, you are correct, if it is alternate arrangement it is not anything in the Viburnum genus. I am trying to picture it based on your description, but I cannot be certain. Would it be possible to send a photo of the tree in question?

@@tommikel7200 Unfortunately, I can't send a photo right now. But it never grows into a tree. It's more like echinacea, or nettles, or something along those lines. The internet is not as good as it used to be. Years ago I was able to successfully identify celandine as well as jewel weed and yarrow, just by entering word descriptions, (shade of green, for eg. blue-green, leaf edge, smooth leaves, stem color, etc.) into a search engine.

@@GreekVegetarianRecip have you tried iNaturalist? www.inaturalist.org/ is an online platform of citizen scientists that post images and also help to verify images of species people aren't sure about. This may be a site that can help or may have examples for you to compare? I hope this helps. Good luck!

@@tommikel7200 Thank you very much! I will try. Will certainly let you know if I identify it successfully.

@@tommikel7200 Hi! I finally identified the plant today. It is Alliaria petiolata, or garlic mustard, or Jack in the hedge. I understand it is considered invasive. I see I wrote this 3 weeks ago. At that time its vibrant green leaves invited me to eat it. I kept back a very strong urge to do so since I did not know what it was. Just 2 days ago I pulled one up and it had a white tap root. Is it wild daikon radish? I asked myself. Again, an urge to eat it. Today, I finally find out that it's edible. I knew it! It just felt like it. It feels like there is communication between humans and plants. They attract us with their beauty, vibrancy, vitality! Today, however, the leaves look sad. It has gone to seed. Apparently it contains a small amount of cyanide which escapes as gas when the leaves are torn up. After more research, I think I'll eat the tap root. P.S. Also, for the first time ever I saw robin's eggs. At first I thought someone placed them there for a joke. They were such a deep, vibrant blue. Then I realized they were real eggs. The robin set up a nest in a protected part of the yard. It was so exciting to observe them! One night it got down to 28 F, -2.22 C and I didn't see the parents in the nest. I thought they would freeze! But the robins knew what they were doing. Such a good mom and dad. The instinct was so strong! I'm pretty sure all of them made it. I saw at least three little ones testing their wings. Plus, I learned a little bit of their language (their calls and their meaning), having observed them for 6 or so weeks. Sorry to go on. I just feel so blessed having had this experience.

Glad it was of help!

Good question, log scales, or log rules were developed 100 or more years ago, depending on the rule you are using, when circular mills with 1/4" or 5/16" kerf was the norm. So the scales were developed with the expectation that the kerf is that thick anyway. So when working with a 1/8" bandsaw mill it is expected that you would produce more lumber than what the scale says you will. The log scale in this video is the Ontario Log Rule, but depending on where you are you may be using another rule, such as Doyle, Scribner, etc. They were all developed by different means, influenced by log diameter, formula used to calculate, etc. and they all build into the equation that there will be loss for slabs and sawdust. Because of this there is always room for a little variability when scaling compared to the finished lumber yielded. I hope this helps!
