. Is pretty wood, not much in our immediate areaThere is an exclusive ash mill several towns to the north that makes handles for Tru Value. They have specific specs for ash logs for baseball bats and pay more for such logs. And I suppose hockey, and lacrosse sticks
Sorry I havenāt been around for awhile guys. The holidays kept me busy then I was hospitalized for kidney stones, donāt recommend those at all. Anyway, I scrounged a small amount of what looks kinda like maple (bark) and ash (wood) not sure what it is. Curious if you guys had an opinion.
There was one here in PA near me. Union Fork and Hoe. Out of business now. They would buy ash from anyone who brought it in. As kids we thought the name was pretty funny. Forkin Hoes.
Yeah I like bacon, and cedar is a weed around here.....plus it's cheaper to make our own boards rather than going to the lumber yard.Most be some pretty special pigs, getting a cedar closet
Cut some blow downs today I believe itās a maple . 
And found some iron wood right next to it . Little hard on the chain and after the first cut decided it was to far gone hollow inside
Found some oak to that was still pretty solid .
Going to have to carry it out

Yes, something like that. But I only have a single tongue, so it would be like the winch stand on a boat.
Yes I saw your videos before. Right now the rear of my trailer is not strong enough to support the weight of an arch and log.
Glad your back. Don't think it's ash after further review on the laptop.
The wireless remotes are great . I have a Smittybuilt winch . Remote works at least 80 ft away thatās how long the cable is .
Time for new trailer
When I was at the mill, we use to saw 4x4s out of the center of Walnut logs for hog shelters.Most be some pretty special pigs, getting a cedar closet

I thought you lot made baseball bats from hickory?
This side of the pond we don't have hickory trees so we use ash for axe handles and so on, or beech but mainly ash. We make cricket bats from willow.

The dead barkless piece lots like red oak and the other red maple and the hollow one looks like a type of "iron wood"
Glad your ok. Looks like good haul there.
Looks kinda like honey locust from here....
Pretty sure that's not ash bark, and the wood looks too yellow for ash.
Edit: kidney stones suck!

I have two Chevy square body pu's, but I wouldn't trade my 2018 Silverado even up for a brand NEW square body, NO way NO how!

Today, more baseball bats are made out of maple than anything else.

Hadn't taken any. Just a 99 dodge 2500 beater for getting firewood. Will see if I have pics of my Apache tho.
