Six years ago my place was logged of 27 white oaks big enough to make the boat to Japan. At least that is what I heard. Well, I cherry picked all the easy stuff off the tops for the first few years and now I am going after stuff I would have probably left, until I came to this site. Now, nothing is sacred. I go for anything and everything lol
These rounds I am showing were from an end that was cut from a log and shoved to the side. They are probably 42" or so and I got 8 of them real quick this eve. There is no rot except this 2" hole that is readily visible. When I cut the rounds the black carpenter ants were coming out by the dozens. However, I will split these up in the morning and it will be gravy and it will yield a good bit.
