I knew where there was a large walnut coming down and stopped by to see if any of the wood was available. Guy told me the trunk was sold(14' to the first limb, 33" diameter) it was a huge tree, but what did I want? I told him I'd like a few of the crotch pieces if possible. This is what they saved for me.

 

I am stunned and he'll get a couple nice bowls for sure!

Awesome Score! Great Job! I will bet that tree will provide some very nice looking projects

Good thing you have your portable lift...you're gonna need it for those...you might want to throw in a honey-dipper too placed in a jar of honey! 

You did good...real good!

Nice score Steve.  Walnut is such a beautiful wood and also fun to turn.  I am happy for you.

WOW! What a score!!

 

I have made it a practice of creating a piece from every tree we have had to have removed. Several of the trees were planted by the man who originally lived in our house. He has received pieces as well. I think it's a neat way to have the tree live on.
