Popular Post treeslayer Posted May 8, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 8, 2022 So i've been trying to get together with a friends son for about 3 months to get a look at some wood he says he and his father milled a long tome ago, they have a kiln and a mill and i've been friends with his dad for over 40 years, but you know how these things go, is it good wood, properly taken care of, what's the price ect. well we got together yesterday and let me tell you i was blown away, this guy has tonnage of all types of wood, kiln dried, skip planed to 4/4 and stored inside huge buildings. these are pictures of his walnut and a couple of my lumber rack straining under the load, more in my storage shed. Now for the best part, walnut was $2.00 a BF, Cherry $1.50 and white oak $2.00, white oak was what he called "shorts" mostly 4' some 3' some 5' all was 4/4, you can see some of the walnut is 12" wide, i'd say this was a good day ! i have to find room to store some more ! 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure the price he gave me was a good friend of 45 years price, having said that I may approach him about selling some to others but the whole 2 huge buildings need to be organized first, I may offer to do that for him and IF he wants to sell some you guys will be the first to know, because you know this is a great bunch of people here 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chestnut Posted May 10, 2022 Report Share Posted May 10, 2022 Is this gentleman looking to offload some lumber? I'd love to take home a nice fat stack of white oak. I'm also always looking for cherry. If the lumber is good quality that prices would make the drive worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
