Spallted beech, too good for firewood?

[big chris the log]

Got some beech aprox 22 pieces 1.2m or 4 foot long.

Smallest about 15 cube, large ones about 25 cube.

That is hoppus cubic foot not metric. Cut one in half with the saw and it looks lovely, but I am no saw miller.

It just seems too nice to break up for firewood.

Hi Chippy I am about 3 miles out of Haverfordwest Pembrokeshire.

I have a lorry and timber crane so can load them.

Cheers Chris.

Wots the subtle difference between spalted but sound, and spalted rotten?

[se7enthdevil]

one is still nice and hard and the other is soft as hell...

 

 

 

some spalted beech doesn't look that great but i have to say that this stuff looks way too good for the fire...

Find some wood turners round your way. They will love it.

The paler ( whiter ) beech is, the softer it is, and it is a fine line between being lovely and rotten ! Woodturners like it ( I am one ! ) but the usual problem is getting some one to pay what you would like for it and having more than just a few bits , and time to deal with people or let them use s saw in your yard..... thanks for thinking about it and offering it up and hope you sell it ! ...also I do not think too many log customers would be pleased if their logs had fungi all over them ...
