Looking for help, second picture is of the end grain. I know they are not the best photos. Any help is much appreciated
I can go along with that. If a sharp chain on a 70cc saw blasts through it than I’d be more confident it’s poplar.
I have the holiday off tomorrow and will head over and do some cutting. I don’t have a lot of room left but I can always find a place to take the good stuff.
Checked that I have seen a lot of trees that are completely different in different areas of the country
That’s most likely silver maple. Here’s a pic from a pile I grabbed this week that I know is silver maple showing bark and end grain for reference.
Now that I am looking at it on a computer instead of my phone, I will say there are 2 different types of trees there. The big log is looking more like silver maple but the small log at the bottom of the second picture still looks like tulip poplar to me.
now on the other log to the left in the bottom pic kinda looks like either poplar or ash would need another pic of that log but atm im leaning on it bein pop
