Highly valuable thread

[HadleyPA]

Can you believe I did this to this much highly valuable black walnut? Actually a guy I know had 3 cut out of his yard and these are the tops. He said if I didn't want it he was going to simply push it in a pile and burn it so since it was only about 3 miles from home I grabbed it.

Ha yeah I was dealing recently with a couple homeowners that wanted me to buy their black walnut trees next to the houses. I laughed and said fuccck no there isn't a tree in my area that's worth buying and being responsible for removing it

there’s a whole thread here the highly valuable black walnut tree or something like that. It starts off with the little cartoon character yt videos and then has pages of amazing stories

It's all firewood. Cherry, apple, black walnut it all burns. Someone told me between wood workers and people with smokers there shouldn't be much firewood in this big apple. It's all on my racks for next years heating season.

 

[HadleyPA]

Apple is a great burning firewood. My only problem when I burn it in the stove is if I go outside and smell it I automatically start to think about food because whenever I use the charcoal smoker I go to my apple trees and do some pruning to use in the smoker. Gets me every time.

I told them they could play play in it once it was on the ground and I knew it was stable.

Just watch the eyes! Easy to get poked....

Not much stuff worth milling in any of those trees, certainly not in OP pictures.

I'd have saved the apple for smoking/grilling. That would be BBQ for a few years.

I would love to have some " Full Size" Apple Trees.
Those dwarf trees just need to much work.

I have taken walnut for firewood usually twisted or damaged trees . If it's small not really worth the trouble to try and mill it. I have used some for little projects around the house. The pic above is of a black walnut cutting board that my wife refuses to cut on . Says it's to nice to use
