OT: I don't think most people object to cutting second growth lumber or even first growth as long as it's done reasonably. The checkerboard cutting probably works reasonably well. Cutting old growth redwood though... ugh. In California old growth Cedar is pretty much gone too now. Like I always tell my hippie friends in Humboldt though, we all live in wood frame homes. It's not the loggers fault. I think we all want that luxury. It's the 90,000 sq ft homes that are the problem. I like to preserve too. Restoring my turn of the century craftsman now. Stripping paint off the original doors which are "wide grain fir" (actually a type of pine). I just read an article in a local newspaper that pointed out the wood used in Craftsman homes. The type in mine is all gone. There is none left so it's going to enhance the value of my home. All my furniture is antique too. Slowly appreciating in value. I found my antique iron bed in a creek behind a house I lived in 30 years ago! I'm going to use my old concrete, by flipping over the broken pieces and then staining it. Using as stepping stones. Looks pretty good that way with a little sculpting.
