This log was labeled an elm. The arborist who gave it to us knows trees.... But... it looks an awful lot like locust. What do you think?

Your log turner is handy. 30 min. Video is about right. Thanks for the video.

Thank you. Yea, some folks like the one minute videos. You Tube does, but they don't help us much. The log turner, and especially Matt and Alan are really doing well. I took some time to get it working properly. I think the next time I do that I'll just use a winch!

As usual it is nice to see you all in operation. After doing some research the log looks like Locust by the grain pattern and color.

Have you ever considered installing a manually operated foot brake to keep the carriage from shifting like that?

@WaynesWorldGarage 21 күн бұрын

not really.... it's shifting because I screwed up the adjustment. Check out the next video and it is better! Thank you for the idea though.

It’s locust that has been cut and on the ground for a long time they all lighten up and have those big splits I’ve seen a lot of it sawing at a pallet mill We will just debark it sometimes and people will buy it for posts like go in the ground. Very rot resistant Super hard sawing when they are old and dry like that

we were thinking the same thing. But, it is light and sawed easy. I've sawn locust before, this seemed like a softer wood. Who knows, we sure don't!

White Elm is white Red elm is tan. It looks like Locust to me that has been laying for years.

@WaynesWorldGarage 21 күн бұрын

I can't disagree. It's been sitting 2 years.

interesting! We're not going to spray them with anything... Still probably more rot resistant than todays pressure treated boards.
