looking for hardwood logs in north Scotland

[lumberjackking]

Looking for some hardwood logs for milling in the north of Scotland. I get a few bits from jobs but could do with getting some walnut and cherry. Any help would be appreciated 😊

Walnut you are extremely unlikely to find and it will most likely be crap if you do. Such is the nature of Scottish Walnut. Cherry is a pain in the arse as it has more tension than a middle east peace summit. I avoid it.

 

I have plenty of elm in Dufftown/Elgin that I can offer. Also, one large bit of ash as well.

what size of cherry are you after, i may have something. are there any other hardwoods that would do?

I have a couple of big bits of cherry if you like.

Thanks for the offer but have a fair bit of elm and really want to have a go at some cherry!

Graham, Andy, anything over 8" in diameter and between 1-3m in length would be excellent. Will take oak and anything a bit unusual!

Brought the ash down today and it's a stunning olive colour. Exceptional figure I expect.
