Wanted, big gnarly stem

[wisewood]

Hi folks,

I've been commissioned to make another hollowed tree house/play house type folly and I'm after an interesting tree butt, preferably with some root plate still attached.

Rough sizes about 40" diameter and around 7 foot minimum.

 

I'm based in the north west and realize haulage will be an issue, but where there's a will there's a way for the right piece.

If you can help me out please pm me.

Thanks in advance,

Si

I have a large, already hollow burr elm coming to the yard tomorrow morning. Would be close to 40" diameter and 7ft is no problem. I think it could go on a single pallet if carefully stood up.

Hi Jonathon

Sounds promising mate, could you send me some pics please?

Ultimately it would need the clients approval but if got some wow factor it could be a goer.

It has wow factor - big, gnarly, deep red colour, lots of burrs. It's getting collected in the morning, so I'll get some pictures.
