I have some wood that I can't identify live or on the net so here's a couple of pictures of it and an explanation
Yes that piece by itself is Yellow not just wet or dry but yellow period, this wood is hard as concrete, the fibers go everywhere in some places and straight in others, my 10 ton manual splitter won;t even touch it so I have to use a chain saw to cut it, it will dull a chain in about 15 seconds if I go at it the wrong way, and some places its like cutting through glass, some of the wood is Yellow, and some is the brown like in the first picture, the bark is dark Brown on the outside but Red underneath, I have no idea what it is but its harder than gum and there's no way a maul will even dent it. If this stuff burns as tough as it is to cut its gonna be better overnight than Hickory
