Dodgy pop.

glad your ok mark, did your sphincter go 5p -10p, 5p - 10p ?

[Mark Bolam]

No mate. Straight to £2 coin.

 

New Stretch Airs on as well.....

Need a bit of luck on your side sometimes Mark.... Glad it missed you. I hate old poplar pollards or just poplars in general... alright in a field for a straight fell though... but in a garden over stuff they're a nightmare. You just can't trust 'em.

Is the wood any use? We just bin all ours. Even more reason to charge more for them.

[Stephen Blair]

firewood mark, takes a bit longer to dry but just split it asap, or carvers like it too

[Mark Bolam]

Mine always seems to turn into featherweight, balsa wood type cack when cut and seasoned, even inside.

 

May start stacking the straight grained stuff and binning the gristle.

Poplar is really only good for firewood and as you say if you do plank it it goes very lightweight... but I suppose if you wanted a large table lightweight it would be ok...

 

Also I think it is one of the few woods that if you do split and dry it and then it rains or gets wet it soaks the water back up like a sponge!!
