What a shame. Big big ball though! Surely it was worth milling anyway? 

I was so disappointed at the plane boring grain inside and didnt have much spare time, I just cut it up into manageable lumps and gave it my brother for fire wood.

Got a chance to buy a Wytch Elm Burr. Bur itself is 600mm x 600mm x 500mm not including the rest of the log. Bone dry supposedly.

 

Can’t get it less than £100.

 

Worth it?

It's an interesting shape, but I don't think it is a proper burr.  It all depends what you plan to do with it but I would say £50 was a very generous offer.

No, most likely not. But its supposedly Bone dry, so was an attraction in that regard. The seller has a Mill so I'd assume knows a bit about wood. Id take a drive over and throw it in the back of the Jeep for £50 and a nice drive over the hills and maybe make a new contact. But I'll not bother for £100.

If , ( and  that's an unknown I know ) its only fire wood you could get a lot more fire wood for £50 !
