You have a plex server. Okay.

I have a couple circular saws. That doesn't make my garage a replacement for a lumber mill.

I live in Alaska and have a friend with a mill that's just a few circular saws and a chainsaw. He makes great rough cut lumber.

You really need to start thinking for yourself and stop believing all the garbage you have been fed.

That's good to hear. Go ahead and tell him that I need 2500 board-feet for my house, that it needs to be free, and I need it by tomorrow. Also, there's another 1.5 million houses being built right now he needs to support, so he may want to ask a few neighbors to help out.

Or would that require a commercial-scale operation involving millions of acres of maintained forests, logging operations, mills, and distribution that costs billions of dollars and employs thousands of people?

Man you have a hard on for corporations. It's like you believe life can only exist if it sucks corporate cock. At the beginning of last century 90% of Americans were self-employed. What you say about everyone working together to produce lumber is not even far fetched. It actually happened.

Technology has been heading towards micronization for awhile now. 3d printing of not only houses but also drugs. We have the technology already to move away from the too big to fail strategy life has become. Small design labs producing the products people need without the enormous waste and pollution.

Your large scale production mindset is not sustainable nor is it the future.
