Burns really quick. Quicker than poplar

 

[RI Chevy]

Yikes. Burns to ash? Or does it coal up?

 

[Nutball]

I had a feeling it was soft, it resembles cottonwood (bark and leaves)

No coals. Just ash

Worse than cottonwood! Feather lite when dry and rots quickly!

Good for decoy carving.

Good for decoy carving.

Older guy from here used to carve ducks! They'd fetch $500-600 buchs at auctions! Loved using basswood.

OK. Thanks

Any ideas?

Yellow poplar
Will have green tint when fresh cut.

 

[Nutball]

I was thinking poplar too.
