Damn! I post a silly question that I think has a silly answer and a half hour later the thread takes the sillyiest (sp) turn!

Okay, okay...I get the picture. Cookies serve no real useful function other than to get one's jollies. Okay. Fair enough.

Some say it warms there saw up before they do real cutting... Some say it wears there saw out before they do real cutting .. Some say they blow there saws up cutting cookies so that they dont have to cut real long and let somebody else do the hard work. If your heating you house with wood dont cut cookies .. It will take for ever and to much waste...

Well you can figure it out.....

For the Adrenaline rush you get, just like in drag racing. Some just get high off speed.

Oh I don't know... they can make for nice drink coasters. I would note one's polianna family members aren't always impressed if you give them as Christmas presents.

Bio-degradable stepping stones. Eco-friendly Frisbees, when you lose it in the brush, who cares. Easier to toss in the back of the truck from greater distances(open truck cap window first). Hard to punish trees so they must be cookied, other techniques are not as effective.

It's so that you can use your saw and make your log last longer!!!

If you noodle your cookies right you can make a pie. Garnish with heartwood noodles.

I'm new to all this, but several people in several days have made reference to cuttting cookies. What's up with little round biscuits of wood that may or may not fit into your stove, but certainly don't fit in the woodpile?

Silly question, I know, but....

The Chocolate Chip ones taste good but I belive I like the Pecan Shortbread the best???????

 

[RiverRat2]

actually if you are tuning on a project saw and you make a change to the Muffler or porting ect... using the same sharpend chain on the same peice of wood and timing your cuts before the mods than after,,,,, you can see what kind of gains you made with your work,,,, Make sense???????? plus it drives the neighbors nutssss and they do fill in gaps in the fireplace or stove when you dont quite have time to put another log on and stoke the fire,,, Prime example,,,, yoor favorite team has got the ball and you want to see the play and not mess with the fire right now,,,, So feed it cookies till the commercial comes on

I cut cookies to test saws performance for doing portwork, muffler mod, chain angles, etc.

Besides, it is fun running a big cc saw with a short bar and razor sharp chain.

Some of us have so much wood to burn, we have to resort to other things to pass the time by....a 20" long piece of wood yields about 19-20 cookies, where as you cut it at 20", it only takes one cut.... lol.

Besides, dried out cookies make the best fire starters one top of a bed of noodles...Duh, everyone aught to know that.

The fastest saw will never outcut the fastest operator in the woods where it counts most. A man with fast hands and fast feet and a slow saw will cut rings around a man with slow hands and slow feet and a fast saw any day of the week.

Now there's the truth... using the saw is the fun part - the rest of it is WORK!

 

[Cut4fun]

Reason, 1st, for the FUN of it period. Saw tuning is 2nd.

Too many saws (naw) and not enough wood?........Also a lot of fun when someone shows up with an interest in saws. ( or needs to be interested) In truth though almost any excuse to get some out and run em will work.........Bob

A guy could cut some 12" to 14" cookies and coat them with Marine Epoxy and use them as place holders at the kitchen table.

^ BINGO!!! i had a lovely gal ask me to cut "some of those discs of wood" today. She wanted them as stepping "stones" for her garden paths, and some thin ones for palce settings and table center pot/pan rests. fired up the Husky and cut her about 50 in a few minutes. Got a case of beer for no work at all and she was happy.
