This program makes it easy to enter surface measure and grade, allowing your personnel to quickly tally in as little as two keystrokes per board.

FSI’s first program specifically geared towards the hardwood lumber industry, the End Tally™ allows users to perform a length/width bundle tally with speed and efficiency.

Also included with the End Tally™ is our Quick Tally and Block Tally routines allowing for a quick estimated bundle entry.
The Logscaler™ is the most user-friendly and intuitive program of its kind and will maximize the efficiency of your log operation.
