Sapling
I always thought it to be dried out sap crust. I'd like to know as well

Looks like crusty sap to me. I seal cuts with a smear of vasalene, it usually helps the flow slow down quite a bit.

Just using what's handy?

What happened was disgusting.
Sure.....

Hahaha sounds like you used too much. Literally just a thin smear over the cut site and stops sap flow on pine and spruce.

Lol.
I guess it's not as funny cuz your work requires that handy yes?
Where as if Lance were the subject...it would be a bit funnier...
No..no...
Cuz I guess we can assume Lance wouldn't use it for fear of dropping a beer....
Too much....to me...
Just means nasty happening on a smaller scale if using the correct amount.
Dual talk.

Doesnt look like sap to me that runs down to leave a trail , this looks like mould, the type you get if you have bark chippings in a pile it goes white inside the pile. A tooth brush and clear water will get rid if it but i believe it is fairly harmless

Vaseline is a great cureall.
