Any guesses? Soft wood, fence line, splits nice.

Does it smell like anything ?
Any pics of the smaller branches

 

[skippy]

Sassafras or basswood just guessing.

 

[Coltont]

Holy piss, how many people need to say it's basswood??

 

[RI Chevy]

LMAO

 

[jakethesnake]

I think it’s maple

 

[huskihl]

Definitely maple...

After doing some reading I am a Basswood believer. This is the cluster it came from. Local power company cut it last summer.

Huckleberry??

I think your onto something.

Curious what this might be. I dont have any leaves from it, just the logs. The smaller the branches the smaller the bark pattern is. Has kind of and orange red brown heartwood.

It's kinda big for a Mullberry, but it sure looks like Mullberry.

I think its mulberry I have seen one bigger. But they rarely get that big

 

[Matt L]

ok, Mulberry sounds pretty plausible to me. Any ideas for use besides firewood? Worth it too make a few boards out of? Or any good for turning?

It will crack or open up pretty bad when drying out! Also pops somewhat like hedge when burning! Pretty yellow wood tho.

 

[Hinerman]

What is it? I split one piece with a maul, split like butter. The heart has a yellow tint for sure. The leaves were long and thin.

You got that out of someone’s yard, didn’t you..

Yes, neighbor had it taken down and a red maple. Tree service put the limbs in my front yard free of charge.
