A cuts the wood log by rapid speed. Due to high speed of friction causes the saw to become hot.
Static or sliding friction? In any event, wood has grain. I would guess that the friction with the grain is different from the friction against the grain. Hmm, different woods have different grains. What is the friction of a wood floor?
Different types of wood have different coefficients of friction. As dense, hard, wood will tend to be smoother than a porous, soft, wood.
the answer will be meaningless until you specify what kind of wood and how finished.
Friction
Wood has more friction indeed

This is called friction. Moving an object in a very tight space generates heat.

Friction is high on a carpet.
carpet has the most fictionThis cannot be answered really. Friction requires 2 surfaces in contact with each other . Rubber on Wood, has a high coefficient of friction, but plastic on wood has a low coefficient of friction. You must state , the make of the material you are going to use to slide over the Carpet, or Plastic, or Wood. Also , different types of carpet or plastic or wood will have very different friction coefficients. Example Nylon carpet is very easy to slide things along, but wool or cotton carpet is a very different story. There are many types of plastic which are rubbery in nature and they offer a lot of frictional resistance.
Wood, or any other material, could be used to introduce static friction to a system. The choice of material(s) depends on how much static friction the system requires. Each material has its unique coefficient of friction.
Wood. There is less friction.

You want high friction so that the energy lost to friction is converted to heat energy. The greater the friction, the greater the amount of energy coverted to heat (or sparks). So low friction means you will have to rub your two pieces of wood (or whatever you're using) together for much longer. Good luck!
