Waste slab wood jig

I use the jig pictured above, and the sawhorse from Northern tool pictured below, to process birch and oak slab wood into campfire bundles.   I buy the one ton bundles for $20-$35 dollars, and haul them home using the old dodge 3/4 ton:
I stack the slabs into the sawhorse, and use a bungie to make everything stay put while I buck the 100" slab-lengths into 16"-18" pieces of firewood, which I then bundle and sell.
More after the jump:

Here is a picture of the one ton slab bundles:

And another photo of the style of jig I find the most handy for cutting the slab wood to length.
