Small Business Saves Trees with Logosol M7 “There is so much waste that it is good to be able to utilize some of the waste trees, and make something beautiful out of them.”, he continued. “We’ve got a couple of tree trimmers who have brought us some amazing logs. It is a service to them. It saves them the expense of chipping them.” “Many people here understand the value of trees. When they come down, people are glad to have something made from the tree, or just want to know the tree went to good use, instead of going to the landfi ll.” Group of woodworkers Guner is a member of the Gaviota Wood Co-op, a local group of tree services, sawy- ers and woodworkers.

    Yamaha Guitar Information

    Yamaha Strengths, Artist’s Advantage “Yamaha Guitars: Essential Knowledge” has been created to give you a behind-the-scenes view of the surprisingly vast and varied resources, facilities, skills, and people involved in making Yamaha guitars the special instruments that they are. Yamaha’s enviable position in musical instrument manufacturing is not only a result of more than 120 years of experience (the company was established in 1887), but also of the unique strengths that its expansive operations bring to bear. From research and development through design and manufacturing to sales and support, Yamaha goes to lengths that are simply beyond the capabilities of most guitar makers. But an underlying dedication to music and the creation of fine musical instruments is always there, forming a steadfast foundation that often results in profit taking a back seat to the pursuit of quality. Yamaha’s true strengths as a guitar maker are not apparent in product brochures or specifications, but they are clearly reflected in the sound, playability, dependability, and overall quality of every guitar that bears the Yamaha name. “Essential Knowledge” includes information that will hopefully provide a clearer picture of the prodigious resources and effort that give artists who choose Yamaha a significant musical advantage.

    A Sawmill Or Lumber Mill Is a Facility Where Logs Are Cut Into Lumber

    Sawmill - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sawmill From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A sawmill or lumber mill is a facility where logs are cut into lumber. Prior to the invention of the sawmill, boards were rived (split) and planed, or more often sawn by two men with a whipsaw, one above and another in a saw pit below. The earliest known mechanical mill is the Hierapolis sawmill, a Roman water-powered stone mill at Hierapolis, Asia Minor dating back to the 3rd century AD. Other water-powered mills followed and by the 11th century they were widespread in Spain and North Africa, the Middle East and Central Asia, and in the next few centuries, spread across Europe. The circular motion of the wheel was converted to a reciprocating motion at the saw blade. Generally, only the saw was powered, and the logs had to be loaded and moved by hand. An early improvement was the development of a movable carriage, also water powered, to move the log steadily through the saw blade. By the time of the Industrial Revolution in the 18th century, the circular saw blade had been invented, and with the development of steam power in the 19th century, a much greater degree of mechanisation was possible. Scrap lumber from the mill provided a source of fuel for firing An American sawmill, 1920 the boiler. The arrival of railroads meant that logs could be transported to mills rather than mills being built besides navigable waterways. By 1900, the largest sawmill in the world was operated by the Atlantic Lumber Company in Georgetown, South Carolina, using logs floated down the Pee Dee River from the Appalachian Mountains.
  • Acoustic Guitar Buying Guide

    Acoustic Guitar Buying Guide

    Acoustic Guitar Buying Guide A Starter’s Guide to Buying an Acoustic Guitar Shopping for an acoustic guitar can be an overwhelming experience. Because guitar makers use a wide range of woods, hardware, and design elements, there are many factors to consider. Specifically, there are four primary areas you will want to consider and/or know about before you start shopping. Table of Contents Purpose and Budget - How are you going to use your guitar, and how much will you spend? Construction and Design - Learn the basics before you shop. Styles and Sound - Understand how different features affect the sound of the guitar. Acoustic Guitar Variants - 12-string acoustics and alternate body shapes Don't Forget Personal Preference Glossary Purpose and Budget Before you think about brand names or body styles, consider what you are going to use the guitar for, and how much money you have to spend on one. Skill Level - Amateur or Advanced If you are a new player who is looking for an instrument to learn on, you may not want to spend too much on a high-end acoustic guitar just yet. Thanks to modern manufacturing techniques, there is a wide selection of good, low- to mid-range acoustic guitars to choose from. But maybe you are an experienced player who is ready to upgrade to a better guitar. In that case, it is important to know the difference between tonewoods, and how the soundboard effects resonance. Purpose - Acoustic-Electrics Expand Your Options Will you be playing with a band, or taking your guitar to public events such as open mic nights? If so, you may want to consider an acoustic-electric guitar.
