Egon, I would think that Saran wrap or other fairly impermeable material would prevent the area of a board that is in contact with the "coated" sticker from drying promptly and that it might induce or promote staining of some sort. The stickers of untreated wood should wick moisture out to a degree, if not as fast as the uncovered wood.

I got the recommendation over on the forestry forum to use the same wood for stickers as the wood being dried. IT is a chemical match and should be as safe as anything.

This is all untested (by me) and new for me so I am considering it an experiment.

What saw do you use for your chainsaw mill? How long is the bar and what HP is it? Do you buy rip blades or resharpen regular ones for ripping?
