To measure board feet in a log is called scaling the log and it all depends where you are from. Almost every Province in Canada and every State in the U.S. has its own scale and they can vary a lot. Find out what is the legal scale for your location. Most scales use the small end and the length. Some round up numbers and many fall back.
