    i know nothing about trimming trees i'm afraid as i'm a woodworker not a tree surgeon. the berries as you call them will be classed as figs (presuming that is what the tree turns out to be) just not the variety you get in the shops.

    i'd say that it's a fig tree (ficus) but which species i would not know as there are 850.

    also a small catalpa crotch that i've split for a lovely book matched pair of winged bowls. these are only roughed out at the moment, i'll finish them in a few months when they are dry. .

    having never sat on any i can't say what are comfy and what aren't.

    tree number 2 is silver birch.

    for such a wide piece regardless of how short it is i would be happy to pay up to£75 but no more. if it's not sound then don't just ring it up as i might be interested in some for a drum shell i must turn and cherry would be a good wood to do it in. just keep it as long as possible.

    why not do as bigfella suggests and simply use a sheet of white magnetic to cover it when subbing.

    as a turner i generate alot of cubic meters over the year and have modified my extractor to dump it straight into a wheelie bin, when its full up it goes to a guy who farms chickens. the dust from the saw goes to the tip but some has gone to people with composting loo's.

    Dead oak

    se7enthdevil replied to Ollie's topic in Milling Forum

    chop off one end first to see what the wood looks like, then think about milling. 2" air dried should be about £30

    the bottom section before it starts getting really knotty yes, the rest is too knotty and is best added to the fire pile.

    how huge is huge??? be a shame to log it up as i always like to see big old trees milled if possible, i think there should be some sort of law to make sure the timber is used and not burned.

    As you are not a million miles away, why don't you pop round and i'll give you a crash course.
  17. se7enthdevil
    depends what you want to turn. face plates are usually for larger work but you can do bowls on them. check ebay for old chisels mate.

    they get used for mallet heads, i have about 20 kicking about here somewhere. one of the hardest woods in the world as well as one of the most expensive.
  19. se7enthdevil
    could be spalted beech but some of the bark looks like alder.
  20. se7enthdevil
    funny looking bark for field maple... did you see any leaves?
  21. se7enthdevil
    would be a shame to lose them to the fire as in my opinion it is a very underrated wood. excellent for joinery carcasing, furniture frames, picture frames, skirting, picture rails, architrave, pallets, instrument makers, carvers and any interior joinery where you need a tough timber with a light weight.
  22. se7enthdevil
    sizes and location would help. in the round i would have thought at least £100.
  23. se7enthdevil
    ooooops, who ever this was got lucky. [ame] [/ame]
