Quarter sawing means cutting at a 90-degree angle from the growth rings on a log to produce a vertical and uniform pattern grain.

Kind of like standing the log on end and cutting it first in half, straight down and then cutting those two halves in half.

The grain on the face of a quarter-sawn board will be parallel lines that are straight, tight and run the length of the board.
