sawlogs

Snore while sleeping

Sawlogs are logs suitable for sawing into lumber—large enough and straight enough to yield boards or planks.

The term distinguishes them from logs destined for pulp, firewood, or other uses.

In the phrase sawing logs, it means snoring loudly, from the similarity of the sound to a saw cutting through wood.
