I want to cut the white pine logs about 2 feet long after removing the bark.
Then I will join for or five of them together like a log wall and then fflatten
the surface of the wall to expose grain, but keeping the log look. Then I
would drill it out for a clock. This will bbecome a wall clock.

if you are just burning do not take the time bark burns good.
the tool used for debarking logs is a slick it looks like a huge chizzle with a
handel that is 3 foot long or so.
the blade is about 4 inches wide and 8 to ten long.
the bevel is very long at a light slope and tool head is around 3/8 inches
thick lots of waight so wen you push it under bark the waight gives you a
little anersha
as for black walnut I wont all the notty ones to turn
and for what they say about fire wood it "heates you several times:once wen cut
once wen split and one more time wen you carey and stack and every one wen you
burn it."

Hello,
A draw knife works well for removing bark when the bark is not too thick. A
draw knife is a heavy blade around a foot long with a handle at each end. The
handles are perpendicular to the blade, forming a U shape. To use the draw
knife, work in the same direction as the length of the log and pull the knife
toward yourself.

Hi Woodworkers;
I need a good idea for removing bark from some pine logs. I have some black
walnut cut for fire wood that I also need to remove bark.
Any good ideas?
