Is this black locust?

Concur. Standing is Honey, chonks are Black.

 

The rounds were still by the road yesterday. Took a couple pictures and 3 of the nice ones. Left the crotchety stuff. I’ll have to cut them down to my size and have some nuggets.

 

I dunno, living out there in the grasslands and sand dunes I’d almost be tempted to take even the crotchety stuff. Noodle it down into chunks and save it for those sub-zero nights.

 

Its black locust. The nuggets burn just as nice.

Whats the address? I'll swing by this week sometime!

 

Locust splits pretty easy. Even the crotches.

 

Sandhillbilly , why leave the best parts? Crazy you are.

 

Man you guys are tough to please. If they are still there next time I go back ( not this coming weekend but the next weekend) I’ll grab them. They are kinda long and heavy, guessing 24 to 30 inches.
Starting to feel like if I don’t get them my membership will get revoked and then I’ll never get to ride in the helicopter. Sheesh!

 

Ride in the helicopter? More like you need to worry about the helicopter doing strafing runs on your house. This ain’t some maple we’re talking about here

 

Looks like it to me…i just picked up some barkless sassafrass wood thinking it was black locust

 

Bring the 266 with a 20" bar. Should make quick work of them.

 

They were too heavy, poor baby.

Suck it up and get the wooden gold!
