Nice. Is this lumber for personal use or to sell?

Great pictures, gotta love really big ash logs.

This lumber will be for personal use. We have 24,500 boardfeet drying in the barn, and I'm cutting more. We plan to use it for flooring, trim, doors etc. In an addition.

cantcutter, yes i like big ash logs too. Alot of people regard them as boring wood, but they have some very interesting grains and I love the smaller stuff for firewood, so easy to split.
