    Red Tips

    I'm about to cut down some large Red Tips. Has anyone cut and dried any Red Tip wood? I'd like to know what color it will be when dried. Light like Boxwood or dark like Red Oak. I,m sure it won't be like Walnut.

    Red and white oak rootballs???

    Hi All, it's been a while since I've been here. I have a guy that wants me to mill some red and white oak stumps for him. I've never done that and was wondering,... what I'm in for and is it worth it?? I've thought about it but never done it.
