Great CL Score (pics)

Got this one on craigslist from someone near downtown Cleveland. Had a huge mulberry tree cut down and wanted wood taken. Cut up most of the smaller stuff and will go back and start taking chunks of the big stuff. (The big trunk is 5 ft in diameter) Interesting wood - orange/yellow in color and splits really well.

Wow that is a huge Mulberry! Good find! I just split some this week. Good stuff.

That must have been a fun one to drop.

Just split some too. Yes, very unique color. Splits very easily. Good score!

How does that come down in a tight a$$ yard like that?!?

I guess the guy that took it down had a hell of a time. It was their landscaper - not an actual tree guy. he had come alongs from the telephone pole to the trunk. It was a tight back yard and the neighbor has the same tree -- it's huge. probably was planted when the neighborhood was started over a 100 years ago.

BTW - the fence in the background is 6 feet high...

Time to buy a giant saw with a 5 foot bar. That trunk looks like a cord all by itself!

Mulberry should be a good burn!
