What does SAWLOG mean in Scrabble?
noun
technical
A felled tree trunk of a size and quality fit to be cut into boards at a sawmill.
Foresters sort timber by use, and a sawlog is the best part of the trunk, straight and thick enough to give planks, as opposed to thinner pieces sold as pulpwood or firewood. Mills usually buy sawlogs by length and by diameter at the small end, because that measure decides how much usable timber lies inside. Branchy or crooked trunks do not make the grade. The term is common in forestry reports and timber price lists.
