I think he'd be lucky to get somebody to take that black walnut log away for free.

I agree. That vid and the one I've linked below were posted by Mike Cantolina on the Walnut Pricing thread. I posted the below vid on my Craigslist and so far the haven't bounced it.

Wow...and I thought all of the pretentious ******* lived in our town. Apparently that whole breedin' with yer sister thing has spread beyond our borders.
Those "Highly Valuable Black Walnut Tree" vids are priceless!
I recently ran into two somewhat older broads at the local Stihl dealer as they contemplated a saw for some DIY. We got to talkin' and they admitted that they had one of these "highly valuable black walnut trees" but never bothered with CL 'cuz they could tell just lookin' at it and where it was that it was a whole lotta work to get rid of. Hell they were seriously lookin' at a $500 investment in a saw just to be able to do it themselves. I offered to give 'em a hand since they were only a 1/2 mile from my home and I knew their property pretty well. Ended up I talked them into a much smaller "easy start" model (not too hard since they couldn't pull the one they were looking at) and agreed to stop by and help them buck the already down tree for the wood and $200 of the dough that I just saved them.
When I got there later that day they had already limbed everything, cleaned up and moved all of the brush off. The older of the two offered to hook my trailer to her tractor and pull it back to the wood so they could load while I cut. Less than an hour later I was leaving with a full load and had made some pretty cool new friends. When I got by there the next day they had already brought the remaining wood to the edge of the road and quit what they were doin' to give me a hand loading.
One in a million I suppose, but finally somebody that didn't leave me mumbling "no good deed goes unpunished".
Meanwhile I'm still getting post hurricane calls from ******* that are looking for that special someone who will do $2,000 worth of work for free while they pocket their insurance money to boot. The most galling part is their attempt to actually make money off of the situation. I just wish'em well and suggest they invest in a shiny new saw. It's the only way I can conceive of to control their growing numbers.

Bigger problem is the 50/50 split. Umm no thanks
You would be better off buying the wood for a set price, then reselling it.
