I have started to cut 1 1/4" logs for my Kentucky Log Cabin (Judy Martin). It is -12degrees without the windchill, and the furnace has been running nonstop. Even with the central humidifier, it's still dry in the house. My logs are sticking to the plastic rulers and cutting mat. Any advice on decreasing the static cling-besides waiting for spring?
Thanks!

I put the plastic stuff on the bottom of my ruler that prevents slipping and that helps. I think I would rather have cling then slipping.

You could try a new dryer sheet and wipe the surfaces with it. Or take a tablespoon of fabric softener and water, put in sprayer and spray on surfaces. Hairspray works on my hairbrush to keep static down, but that might be messy til it dries.

Vinegar in the wash. Put some moisture in the air, make tea, spritz water, use hand moisturizer for hands

Try tbsp. of white vinegar in spray bottle. Lightly mist (like a squirt) above the fabric. Let it fall then fan it or let dry couple minutes. Just enough to cut static.
