[QUOTE="The Singing Arborist, post: 6737517, member: 154240"] I would guess that the bottom 3-6 ft has rotten wood, and that the rest is completely usable. If there is lead in the tree, it is most likely in the bottom portion anyway. The most interesting wood will come from those crotches about 15-30 ft up. Rather than rotting, those will just get better with time. I'm on the side of keeping it but I also can't speak to its stability. When it comes time for you to take it, make sure you have everything in place to transport store, and dry the wood. That is usually where the biggest waste of lumber occurs. [/QUOTE]
