Caption: Tie Hacking - Knock Off the Juggles
Additional Description: Illustration on the lower left of the marker. Ties were made by first marking the log with layout lines and then notching it with an ax every 12-14". Then the "juggles" - the wood between the notches - were removed with a broad ax. The log was turned and the steps were repeated until all four sides were square.
