Laburnum wood offered

[RidArb]

Hi,

 

I have a client who has 2 nice pieces of laburnum, the trunk of the same tree that has been cut in half, both about 5' long and approx 8-10" diameter. It's a windblown tree and the base still has the root plate/bole attached, the top part splits into three leaders in about the last foot. Both nice and straight, few knots and I don't think there would be much rot as it was a rootplate failure.

 

I haven't got any photos but could get some, just trying to work out what it might be worth, and if anyone on here might be interested.

 

Wood is based near Salisbury close to the A303.

 

Thanks

I'll take a tape and measur it this week to confirm sizes just so I'm not misleading anyone

Any chance you can post some photos? I'm not far from devizes and might be interested. No idea of price though, so can't help in that respect.

Yes sure, i'll try and get some one evening this week and pop them up,

 

Thanks

Sorry for the delay, been to the clients today and took some photos. The saw is in the photo for perspective.

 

The big piece with the root is 150cm from top to the very bottom (approx 130cm of clean wood) and is around 8"-9" diameter at the base.

 

The next biggest piece is 130cm in length (approx 100cm from base to below the fork) and around 7" diameter at the biggest end.
