Which are the best logs? Which should I use?

Wiki: GaleFaq
No respectable loggers will display any messages with the keyword "nolog". Since many logs are publically accessible to any Web user, you may wish to use this if you are mocking your employer. Long, long ago, embedding the string JJ-232 had the same effect, but it is no longer nearly as widely supported as /nolog. Bear in mind that nolog is not a real guarantee that your information will stay private.

Do you use green logs or dry logs?

Log Homes Handcrafted by Mike and Laurie Senty
Both, depending on the budget and preference of the owner. For years we have built with both dry and green logs. In those years, green logs offered us close to, but not quite absolute perfection. Dry logs were better than green at that time. Over the years, we have tweaked our green log fitting systems, until we were able to offer a construction system that offers tight wood on wood joinery, after drying and settling is completed, using green logs.

Can I use one of those chimney cleaning logs?

Fireplace FAQ Part 3
Chimney cleaning logs are not a substitute for a professional chimney sweeping, but they do do some good. It's a bit like running weakly soapy water over your hands but not scrubbing.

There are many types of synthetic (manufactured) logs on the market. You need to carefully read the instructions on the packaging.

There are so many to choose from that sometimes it is difficult to know. There are, however, two golden rules: Moisturising is absolutely vital for anyone with psoriasis. Although it does not get rid of the psoriasis, it makes it less scaly and much more comfortable. The best moisturiser is the one that you feel happiest with and that you feel you can use easily on a regular basis. Discuss this with your GP and ask her or him to prescribe one that you like and will use.

What is the best insulation to use?

Solar Cooking Frequently-Asked Questions
If you wish, you can insulate the walls of a box cooker with various substances. Fiberglass or Styrofoam is usually not recommended since they give off ill-smelling gases as they heat up. Natural substances such as cotton, wool, feathers, or even crumpled newspapers work well. Many people, however, leave the walls empty of any stuffing, preferring instead to place a piece of foiled cardboard as a baffle inside the wall airspace. This makes a lighter cooker and seems to be adequate.

What's the best size of boat to use?

Draft rec.boats.cruising FAQ
For coastal cruising, the simple answer is whatever boat strikes your fancy and satisfies your budget. People who strain their budget to buy expensive boats don't tend to use them that much, because they're busy earning money to keep both their boat and other aspects of their lifestyle afloat. I had a graphic example of this when I visited the ritzy Marina del Rey section of our city (where I work) and the far scummier Long Beach marina.

Use approximately 30-40cm length of floss. Hold it taut between your thumbs to floss the top teeth, and between your forefingers to floss the bottom teeth. Leave about 5cm of floss between the fingers. The floss must be taut when it is used. Guide the floss between the teeth using a very gentle sawing motion. Move up and down to clean gently under the gum line. Don't be too rough and be careful not to cut your gums.

Q:: What kind of logs do you use?

FAQ'S (Frequently Asked Questions)
We use a kiln-dried, turned log. They are available in several species, including pine, fir, cedar, and tamarack. I work almost entirely with pine, as it has always been the choice of my customers. It is light colored with very pretty distinctive grain patterns. I call our homes “contemporary log homes” , as the logs are all true to size, grooved to fit tight with no chinking, and bolted together with a thru-bolt system.
