This thing was pouring water out of it. It was cut last year but his notch never separated so i guess it was still taking water in. 3F3E00C2-D0E7-4D5C-85B6-E6394056C7C7.jpeg

    Yellow could be black locust, mulberry, tulip poplar?

    Im thinking elm. I think its too heavy and stringy to be poplar. I keep forgetting to do the closeup end grain test with the magnifying glass.

    First guess would be mulberry as well, yellow and very heavy, but never cut much if any tulip.
