Wood ID

I found this log in the transfer station. Is it some kind of pine? There is no pitch, it split easy.

 

That bark looks a lot like some Kentucky coffee tree buZZsaw BRAD gave me a few months ago.

 

That split looks softwoodish. I thought kentucky coffee tree wood was more dark brown. I could be wrong though.

 

The wood reminds me of maple.

 

Thats exactly what I was thinking.

TTBOMK they don't grow wild around here and are only seen as yard plantings so it could be some sort of hybrid. I have seen pics of them with the dark heartwood.

 

Whatever this means? More letters than the gender identity chart.

 

C’mon man, if you’ve never tee-teed a bomk before you’re missing out

 

Guess I am missing out.

 

To The Best Of My Knowledge

 

Could it be Catalpa?

 

The Catalpa I’ve scrounged before had bark more like ash.

 

sort of does look like it. Catalpa has a center pitch as does the split in question.

 

Silver maple.
