Gullet area factor
?
Gullet area factor is 0.42 for square back tooth, 0.52 for round back
Depth of cut inside saw (in.)
?
The depth of cut for the bottom inside saw of one side. This saw is cutting the inside sideboard of a possible two sideboard cant. Typically this saw will be buried close to its maximum depth. This value must be greater than 0.
Depth of cut outside saw (in.)
?
The depth of cut for the bottom outside saw of one side. This saw would be used when cutting a two sideboard cant. Set this value to 0 for a one sideboard cant.
Sawdust expansion factor
?
1.8–2.0 for slow growing species (e.g. Northern Spruce); 2.5 for fast growing species (e.g. Southern Yellow Pine)
