    Just a thought Brad maybe contact some of the loggers ( not tree care) in your area maybe they could hook you up with a load of locust topwood Locust is a premium log at sawmills and it became really tough to get when I had the sawmill . I was paying @.55 to .65 a board ft plus trucking one load of real nice logs was from west virginia it was 3200.00 for the load with the shipping . I did ask him what they did with the top wood and he said a local guy bought it for making fenceposts and rails JB

    Idid spy many BL logs on the top of a pie of logs at a land clearing company next to the lumberyard I do business with. Called and they said I couldn't cut in their yard. I can't take log length delivery either.

    Appreciate the input JB! :handshake:
