Having milled a fallen Walnut tree for a guy about 3 yrs ago and now the boards have been dried I've machined the

remainder of the milled timber into some lovely floorboards, that will be laid in the hallway of the farmhouse

close to where to tree grew.

Not entirely sure of the cost for the floor board bit as it was a huge tree which yielded some 80cu/ft of milled timber most of which was used in the interior of an outdoors kitchen and window boards in the house.

If you take into account the milling of the tree and he machining, he ended up paying somewhere in the region of £50 per sq/m for English Walnut floorboards which is about £80 less then the normal cost.
