My first thought was Bird Cherry or what ever they call that other Cherry, but after waiting for more pics to download, I can see Sycamore, though I'm not sure what the heartwood of a Sycamore looks like, Western Indiana is loaded with them.
there are a few around here like that, but i was just pointing out that it was well past a sapling. after i posted that, i counted the rings in the pic. 25 lol. lucky guess
Usually the bigger they are the more "scaling" on the trunk. (not science, just my personal observation). I thought beech at first aswell, but I could see "scaling" on most of the pieces and have never seen this on beech.
the scaling threw me off, but around here some of the beech trees will have a little here and there, revealing those yellow/greenish colors as opposed to gray/whitish colors of sycamore.
Looks like sycamore to me. It might be a limb out of a larger tree. The limbs usually don't have the scales as much as the trunk does. Heartwood looks about right too.
