That's useful; thank you. I'll definitely make a cut and take pics. FB Marketplace does seem the way to go these days. Cheers

I am sure someone will have a use for those beams. The problem as always is finding that goldilocks customer. Many customers would want lots of them, and others will only want a 6ft piece etc. I think the way to go is Facebook marketplace. Include photos and as much info as possible in the advert. I will say though I don't think they are tropical hardwood. Zoom in on the end grain and you can clearly see the springwood and summerwood. It looks exactly like a quality softwood - pitch pine, or even larch or douglas fir. This doesn't make them any less useful in my view. If you want to get a better idea cross cut a couple of inches off one end.

Oof, just woke up. Collect and stack two stillages of logs, see about a rugby game on the box and out for supper. FIL diedclast August and today would have been his birthday, he liked us all to go for a meal out so doing the same without him. Earwig, Goer, Gain.

@Squaredy Sorry to bother you! Have you any observations to make here? Cheers

That's a surprise. How can something that size not be worth anything? They're 4.3m long!

Its green heart ,often used for piles in costal areas ,can be a tosser to cut as it wears down chainsaw, chain saw dust is sandy ,burns on open fire ok . Tbh not even worth ringing up for the fire

I dont know about the UK ,but if thats Lignum Vitae it would be worth huge money in Norway. A mate scored some heavy beams that had supported the engine in a wooden ship. He got over £5k for them.There were ¼ the volume you have. Go get them positively identified.

Good Morning Pompey bound to see the fossil. Log delivery on the way. Have a smashing day. Play up Pompey!

Fair point Mick; I could cut a small piece to expose fresh timber - might do that anyway 👍

Did you know that Koi fish always stay in groups of 4? It's believed that this strategy enables A, B and C Koi to scatter when a predator attacks, leaving behind the D Koi.

Morning all, Doing a quote on the other side of the city then collecting timber from Thursday’s job on the way home. Have a good weekend

Morning all . Intermitant showers here . My niece and her family are over from Australia . We going for a meal at the Nags Head tomorrow .

It’s my fault for reacting to your board. Best not look in future, trying to second guess is fools work.

Good morning 😉

"when one person has problems" I did apologise yesterday Mick, don't hold it against me.

Wordle 1,673 4/6 🟩⬛🟨⬛⬛ 🟩🟩⬛🟨🟨 🟩🟩⬛🟩🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Strange how yesterday’s word gave so many of us problems. Racer was quite a standard sort of answer. I Wonder if when one person has problems, others think it must be tricky and try unusual solutions. A sort of herd mentality.
