An end-dogging head saw is disclosed comprising a log cradle for supporting a log, a log-turning device for rotating the log into proper alignment with a pair of band saws, the log-turning device depending from overhead log carriages which move the log into contact with the band saws, and a carriage drive for powering the overhead log carriages, whereby short logs can be quickly and efficiently processed. The invention also seeks to provide a method for using the apparatus, comprising rotation of a log through 360 degrees to allow for cutting at any desired angle along the length of the log. The method allows for maximal recovery of high-quality lumber.
