You’re gonna need a bigger truck and shop. 

Kind of a shame to cut down such an old tree.

Center slab would make a nice live edge table.

That's the biggest bubinga tree I've ever seen. Then again, I ain't never seen a bubinga tree.  Need to get out more, I guess.

By the look of the cut,I think they used a handsaw to make it, or maybe they had to change the BS blade part way through.

He cuts a little from each side until through.

Every time we go west I make it a point to drive through the red woods. Those trees are unbelievable.  

  

I have read when the trees needs moisture they can make it rain...

 

We had been roaming around seeing the sights one time and the last stop before heading home was  Mount Rushmore.  Since that didn't take as long as we had planed I told the wife and kids we gonna head back to 

the redwoods one more time then go home...Kids was not too happy but wife said good for I can take more pictures.

 

Funny for lots of folks living in California and are wood workers have never been through the redwoods. I wonder if John Morris, no , never mind...

The Redwood forest is awesome. Bigger trees I've never seen. We saw a logging truck hauling just one log. It was so big that there were wide load escorts.
