I can't believe how much elm just went for firewood twenty years ago. No one wanted it.

 

When I worked for the LA I felled a stem that was burred to around 4m. I arranged with my manager to plank it at cost for a local wood turning club, but there was insufficient interest to do it.

Yeh very sad indeed .. to be honest I think about stuff that I have logged over the years .. that makes me cry

They are 64 inches wide on the flare and about 50 I think on the other end and just over 6 1/2 ft  long

Nice boards very lucky , I would totaly be in the market for one of those if any do sell , but looking at your first pics there looked to be more than what you got milled , do you have any left .

Beautiful. Would love to see what they become in years to come. Timber like that is a rarity.
Great to see the young lad involved too, you could hold back a board for him in the hope he takes up an interest in woodcraft in the future! Would make for good memories!

Cheers .. hopefully he will follow in my footsteps .... ?
