Woodworks

You OK? Looks messy and not much of a roll bar. Just got a pivot steer loader and not sure what it can and cant do with taking it too it's limits.

I see you got this at the start Will. Thanks

I will have a look tomorrow. Dont hesitate to remind me as I dont have the best memory haha

It's that green sizes or dry?

I will have look through them. Some of the wood is up to that size but not checked which species they are. You thinking of wood for skittles? If so what size would you want it milling and any particular cuts?

Think you have nailed it as the bark looks right unlike the bark on every other acer I looked up

I'm just happy it's not pop whatever it is

Steve is going for acer platanoides

Yes been chatting with Steve and he thinking on the same lines. Going through my handbook of hardwoods which only describes the wood and not the tree Acer saccharum fits pretty well.

So it's in excess of 700kg a cubic meter and looks like this

I would have gone along with the pop but the wood itself is not like any pop I have seen. I will plane up some this evening and give some weights for it now it's dried. Maple fits the wood so much better but not found any with bark like this.

3m lengths roundwood from 8"-30" . The rounds in the picture are 12"

Does it ever have consistently tight growth rings? Talking 1mm a year

Thats the thing the growth rings are as tight as an aquatic birds rear end.

No not beech. There is some in the load and it's not like this wood
