okay we're reversing our plans a little bit because we realize that we need them all to be the same width otherwise the siding is going to go like this right and so we can either have all sixes eights tens we're not going to make them all the same but we're going to make enough that when we put up a row of sixes we just grab out of the sixth pile and put up a row of eight to grab out of the eight pile go from there i hope that works so let's load these back up [Music] challenge that we're facing on this job is all of these logs have these different widths and at first we didn't catch this so we can't have one log be this wide and then the next log be this wide because you see these lines right here they just won't line up you can't get a straight line on the house but the logs that we have don't have enough consistency to make them all one did equal with what we're going to compromise with is we're going to make a batch all at 10 inches another batch all at 6 inches another batch all at 12 inches that way we can take all of the 12-inch logs and line them in a row then we can go the 10 then we can go the eight we can kind of stack them up according to size and i think that'll actually look pretty decent i hope
