Trees you've cut

[Teewhy]

Nice work to get with a few mates.
2 Leyland Cyprus and 2 Ash to come down,
Basket job, left with a truck load of ash for the stove, happy days
Machine delays mean we’ll have to be back, but it was a good couple days nonetheless.

That first one has some pretty wood, is there anything you can do with that?

It’s nice and stable unlike Euc. I mill it, sell to tule peak timber, or mostly make “cookies” out of it and sell to ladies for decoration. Or charcuterie boards. I’ve made some good $ doing it. Like 160 cookies for $7 ea..

I think I made a mistake by putting the back cut through a wound burl.

Those darn short fiber trees like gravity too much. They never initiate the fall until you’ve already taken too much hinge. Then it just tears sideways and goes straight for the lean.
