Tried to access this Richard but it doesn't go through unless your a member. I went ahead and registered so I could see this cool maple log.

I am awaiting confirmation.

OK, I download the photos and put them here so any one interest won't have go over there and register.

Boy that is some beautiful wood. Looks like it had a little rot starting in part of it.

Hope they were able to salvage most of it.

You got that right, very nice, some beautiful slabs coming out that log. What figure, a blanket chest is just screaming out of all that!
