I mark a unique number on each slab and record all info in an excel spreadsheet under that number. I take a picture of the slab or piece when its still fresh looking, insert a comment in a cell and put the picture into the comment. That way if I am selling a piece or looking for something in particular to use myself I can filter all pieces or batches for things like figure, spalted, species, sizes etc. to get a short list of what I’m after then look at the pics to find exactly what I want. Its extra work but its helpful and kind of nice to have it all at my finger tips. My question is … what is the best method of numbering lumber that will survive the kiln and storage? -- It's not the mistakes you make that matter, it's the mistakes you leave. |
