How do you keep your cookies from splitting when drying.Here in the states we have flame box elder very similar tree both in bright red colors and they grow so incredibly ugly.

Awesome video as always!Interesting, thank you. Cuts to make the logs portable are understandable but I wonder if bigger ‘slabs’ would have been useful to some wood workers eg.

For tables or worktops.Those “Jigsaw Cookies” are awesome as they are. Due to the rot in the centre and the way the pieces broke it shows that recovering large planks and slabs were probably not on the cards for this tree.

Still, you can make a whole bunch of live edge round-tops with epoxy centres. Hats off to you gentlemen. Today I was walking home, and on the way I saw that a very old cherry tree had just broken at the root and.

The tree was tall, the trunk is very thick for a sweet cherry, there are a lot of unripe berries on the tree. That’s it, I hope no one got hurt.Good morning from Wisconsin!

That was a gigantic job! Must have been a long day cause when the chain fell off it looked like you wanted to throw it.Love your video that tree looked so ugly but the inside is outstanding I have never seen this type of wood I love to have so I could turn it.

Hope a craftsman got this wood and made amazing things with it. Better than it going to waste.That is some awesome chainsaw handling up in that tree air climber is really really good.

The tree is too close to the house. We had a poplar in the front garden, even in the house the floor was heaving from the root and in the underground the root was like a pipe. Smooth. It also had to be removed.

What can you do. Huge twigs were already falling to the ground. And God forbid, on someone’s head.
