I got to get rid of it, don't know how much I can use very twisted, knotty, and funky but really curious - never saw one like this. Trunk is only about 3 feet high, looks like 4 of the same trees together.

Agreed.(about the Japanese maple part) The Japanese maples I have planted out front cost several hundred $ each and after 10 years they are about 1/100 that size.Bocefus78 said:Always amazes me when people plant trees directly under power lines.......
If thats a Jap maple, its 2 things:
1: The biggest one I've seen
2: Worth a stack of $20 bills as tall as the tree if you can dig it up.
My vote is sweet gum
