Tbey are making lumber not firewood. That is a mill not a logging machine and do you know how many Pony Express riders you displaced by typing your post on a computer or phone?

Lumber = Carbon sequestration.
Firewood, not so much, but sustainability.

Most of that firewood becomes what I like to call "yuppie firewood" - the tidy little bundles shrink-wrapped in plastic that you find stacked in front of the Whole Foods for $12.99. About six spotlessly clean logs to a package. On cold nights, you see the yuppies snapping that wood up after work so they can have a little ambiance to go with their wine sipping by the fireplace in the den. Very convenient but over time, you are probably spending well over $1000 per cord when you can get it delivered to your house in a dump truck for a fraction of that.
I do like to see this technology in action so thanks for posting. Another amazing contraption is this railroad track laying machine.

OMG...trees have feelings too. Oh, the horror.
Seriesly, though, the very first band saw gizmo...I'd take the first two slabs that came off the first side. Make a heck of a table. You'd pay big bucks for those slabs.
Reminds me of the old Wood-Mizers. Hate to pay for a replacement blade on that saw.

Log it, graze it or watch it burn.

Thanks for posting. I was wondering how they season the wood.

Well, that was a bust - the video went from one process, not letting us see the finish of it right into another.

That machine chews the hell out of the surface of the log when flipping and rotating.

You'd be surprised how much deadwood is wasted, that could be converted into firewood.
It would help the forest to clean it up, so there wouldn't be so much underbrush that helps to totally destroy all the living trees in an area, when a forest fire starts, either from lightening strikes or carelessness.
