Tree ID

Wanted to know what kind of tree , there are no leaves around it

 

Looks like locust bark.

 

Yep, Honey locust I believe..

 

Looks like typical park/curbside honey locust planting.

 

Yep, it's that thing we said.

 

That's the ornamental honey locust, landscaper stock. Good wood, takes about 3 years to reach its potential.

 

P.S. It also makes beautiful flooring and other woodie projects.

 

My first chainsaw milling project turned out 150 8/4 board feet of it. I wish it was ready to use, but that's a while off.

 

What ya gonna make?

 

I'm tempted to try making a chair of some sort. Maybe even a rocker.

(With 150 board-feet, I could build a fleet of them.)

 

Little fun and helping a friend. The 362 is starting to get some good work..gonna split it up should be over a cord or 2

 

Jon, if I had a mill probably my first project would be a nice natural looking bench using a rough cut 3 inch thick slab. Leave the bark on and everything. Just seal the surface with resin or varnish and you would be in business.

 

Fun, but I don't really need one. I've got the chops to tackle complex woodworking projects; it's only milling that I'm new at.

 

I have about 4 tons of that sitting on my trailer and in my truck bed right now

 

So, like, a face-cord? That stuff is heavy.

 

its so dang heavy.
Must be more then 4 tons, lol

Looks to be about a full cord.

 

2 cords Split , good work.
Lots of fun cutting too

 

After it was all split, 1 1/2 cords. Gotta bring it home now..hopefully tomorrow. I'm really enjoying the cutting with the 362. After 8 tanks, it's getting stronger
