I have no leaves from it, only had the one trunk piece. Do you need an up close picture of the bark? I sanded the end grain with 220.Can confirm, its wood!
It can be impossible deciphering the species via pictures of sawn open wood grain. Pictures of the bark, leaves and the region grown in are whats needed. s for guessing it looks like monkey puzzle to my eye
It was dropped off at a friend's place by a tree service. It was def a tree of some sort, I helped him split it into firewood. Bunch of other logs with it but that was the only piece I saved and milled. Several other logs this size.Not just the region grown in, the more information about its environment, such as in a swamp or high ground, near a residence or somewhere that it might be a non native species planted as an ornamental, things such as those examples.
The bark doesn’t look to me like river birch. I’m thinking possibly a large specimen that isn’t commonly found that large, normally considered a bush, or an ornamental non native.
Nah I actually have some spalted red maple, nothing like it. Probably a little harder. I'm leaning toward a mature river birch.Soft/Red maple? Looks like some of the boards have spaulting.
