I just processed two cords of sweet gum. That does not look anything like sweet gum.

 

[Sushiyummy]

any ideas what it is?

 

[Sushiyummy]

Wow, 2 cords. It got to be painful.

Have you split any of it yet? Can you post a picture if so, and also a close up of one of the end grains.

it looks like there is a few different types of wood some of it looks like oak.a good way to tell if it may be sweet gum is to try to split it by hand,if its impossible to split it may be sweet gum.

That's a hodgepodge of wood. Need a split or clean end cut.

Bark resembles that of gum... but gum rounds usually have a dark brown center that looks like a bullseye.

not sure of tree, but lots of poison ivy no thanks!

That looks like English Ivy not Poison Ivy.

 

[Sushiyummy]

Yes, it is English Ivy.
