Beautiful wood. Be a shame to put it in a burn pile. Is that a softwood?

Very soft wood! Everyone we drop, the top explodes with rot......

Those pics are amazing!
You might venture over into the milling forum to get their opinion or see if there is any interest in your area. I did a small search and it seems to be sought after by wood turners and for lumber, not so much for firewood, but it will burn.

From a woodworkers view, I'm starting to really take a new look at softwood. In one thread, I saw some cottonwood that had been slabbed and it looked very nice.

Wow! What kind of mill do you have?
Has a spalted maple test log but I made cookies of it. City tree. No mill will touch a city tree.

Cool. I have the Timberjig but haven't used it yet. I can see a real design advantage in yours if a guy needs an auxiliary oiler. What kind of wood is that ?

Good Evening Men. Nice looking stuff there Mike,
Joetown is the home of what was originally Walnut Log. They and Bishops and Fajen in Warsaw, Mo. supplied gunstock blanks to the world. Now they turn veneer hardwood.
And, the 029 is gone already. Yikes!
