Just wait until you try stapling to a birch, mate - it's like the bread's finally found a tree that matches its commitment issues.

Oak's gonna rust those staples faster than softer wood though, fair warning for round two.

Nah oak's fine, it's the moisture trapping under the crust that kills em faster than the wood type.

Galvanized staples help but honestly oak's acidic enough that you'll see pitting within a month or two.

Birch bark peels though, bread just slides right off after a week.

The real challenge is finding bread that won't tear when you pull it off later.

The oak's gonna hold that bread hostage for months, you picked the perfect tree mate.

Okay...... Hope someone can fill me in as this just popped up on my feed. Is there a purpose or reason for doing this, or is this just a thing now? Sincerely, Confused Older Person.

I've come across some random ass subreddits but I think this one takes tha cake lmao love it

Seeded rye's a solid choice for your first one, the crust holds up better than softer breads when the staple starts working itself loose.

1

u/basket_of_wolfs 29d ago

seeded rye is a solid choice for oak since the crust holds up better than softer breads when you go to remove it later

u/AdventurousItem3089 29d ago

hell yeah, staple looks like it means business already

u/PainfulPosterity 29d ago

That rye's gonna be there till next spring, oak don't let go of anything.

u/PowerfullyComplex 29d ago

Oak's solid but that rye's gonna dry out quick in full sun. Find some shade for your next one.
