Black pop and pear.

[DN22 Gardening]

Hi all,

Just started a new site. Loads of timber to come out.

 

Took a very large pear tree out today

The butt is about 4' long and about 28" round although the heartwood is pulpy.

There are 3 lengths at 4mts long minimum dia. is 12" and a piece about 18" dia. that's about 5' long.

 

Also on site are 3 80' black pop's.

loads of very straight wood in it.

 

Anyone interested in taking it straight from site for milling.

 

Also, anyone have any idea what it's worth ?

 

Thanks on advance. Dave

I saw some black pop rob milled on here a while back and it looked stunning wood when finished.

As you can see its very straight timber.

 

If no ones interested I'll mill it myself and try not to butcher it.

I'm very interested in some of the pear, but trying to figure out how to do it.

 

I do come past about once a month, but unfortunately whilst I'm next up on Monday/Tuesday next week, I have to travel with a colleague this time and I don't think he would be very impressed!

 

How quickly does it need clearing, and is there any chance of storing a couple of 2m lengths of the pear until I can pick up?

 

Cheers

Hi Alec,

I'll PM you when I get home.

 

I've heard some horror stories about drying Pear.

Anyone got any advice?
