Little different spin on this one, Logger stopped by the log yard today says he has 4 nice Hackberry trees on the current job he's working. He estimated about 600 ~ 700 BF. I told Ted I would see if anyone here would be interested in 500 BF of it, price is $1.10 a BF plus 6.75% NC sales tax for grand total of $587.13. Lumber will be fresh cut, off the log (not kiln dried).
Logger anticipates being out of there on Monday and we'll need to know by Monday if any one would like them. If not he'll send em on to his regular timber buyer.
I would recommend through and through (natural edged) since there is no distinct difference between the heart and sapwood. You'll get more usable lumber lumber that way.
This is a real steal the first person to reply gets the 500 BF. You won't find this very often. I wanted to pass this deal along to a member so if your interested please reply to this post, specify how you want it cut (no less than 4/4 thick please) and we'll go from there.
