Dealing With Blade Kerf Milling Lumber w Woodmizer LT15 Sawmill

This is how I deal with the blade kerf on my Woodmizer LT15 sawmill. Or maybe said more accurately, how I justify the way I deal with the kerf. The blade kerf is the wood the blade removes as sawdust. The blades I use create a curve about 1/8 inch thick. If something isn’t done to account for the kerf, we will end up with lumber that is thinner than what we may want. In this video I am milling some Douglas fir logs into lumber. Some of which I plan on using to build a small off grid cabin. I also attempt to answer other questions I have been getting. Why I mill full dimension lumber instead of common dimensional lumber.  What I do with the lumber after I mill it. Do I sticker plain and process it more?
