	*Assume 2 cuts per board once started. So 2 minutes per board. In an hour, can you really get 30 sticks of hardwood 2x4? That would be great. Moving time probably eats up the time, otherwise, cutting speed is good, even on table-saw level cutters. Assume 50% production rate - 8 hour day gives 120 sticks of 2x4s.
