  3. Yeah theres a nice rot pocket full of water on the top cut but the wood is hard and not pulpy, according to the owner its a watering hole for the local birds. Here is a Bay from the same job, its brittle and yellowing and the bracket is the second one thats cropped up in the last 5 years. Ill be back in a couple of years to keep the birch in check unless the Bay gives up the ghost in the mean time.
