Yep mill it with a chainsaw, cover it in chain oil, good plan [emoji30]

 

Eh?

Bump.

 

Any opinions on the value of the freshly milled slabs?

Slightly more than the best offer you get?

You mean slightly LESS than the best offer, right – otherwise I wouldn't sell any

 

I need a "sticker price" to generate interest, and take it from there. It does not really work with an auction setup for me, and I don't want to deal with hundreds of unrealistic "I'll pay a tenner per slab" offers.

 

I am considering pricing prime quality at around £30 per cu. ft. but would like to have opinions on value from arbtalkers with experience on the subject.

£30 fresh sawn sounds pretty sensible to get the slabs moving. I've not got experience of decent sized Walnut, but if the price were much higher you could be hanging on to them for a long time.

i've bought a fair bit of fresh sawn wood from £10 up to £25 per cubic foot and depending on amount.

 

anyone will know that walnut will command a higher price so i think willsmills has stated a good price there at £30ft3

When you cut the tree down I need a large piece of walnut for a bowl I need to make! I need the blank to be about 2ft x 2ft x 3-4inches deep. Would this be at all possible?

 

If anybody else knows of a place where I can get walnut in this size please let me know, seasoned or green!

I'm in Hinckley just outside Leicester

Are you aware that the walnut tree is located in Denmark?
