Sounds like a job for a portable mill! Randy?
I meant to post that yesterday. Glad you caught that Mike. I will go help also if we get something together.

but they are also 3'+ around - you could turn a bowl you could bathe in... :gar-Bi
Yes you could:rotflm:
That is seriously tempting although I have no place to put any of it.

Doubt it, but there is still a LOT of wood between the ends that can be used. :eusa_danc

From CL ---> "We have a 200 year old red oak tree that was rotted at the bottom, we had it cut down before it fell and have it cut in pieces, the pieces we need removed are about 3-4 foot in diameter and about 4-5 feet long, they are still very solid without rot. I would estimate each piece is around 3 to 400 hundred pounds, have at least 10 of these. If you can load em, you can have it, but be sure you can before anything because we don't have a ton of time on our hands to be meeting with people that can't do it. Thank You. E-mail if interested."
Might want to check on this
a 3' diameter X 5' length = a little over 1 ton (2,262 Lbs)
a 3' circumference (12" diameter) x 5' long = 252 lbs
a 4' diameter X 5' length = a little over 2 tons (4,021Lbs)
a 4' circumference (16" diameter) x 5' long = 447 lbs
Something just don't seem right :icon_scra
Hope it all works out for you :thumbs_up

I agree. That would be a HUGE tree otherwise. I've sent an email asking for pictures with some reference for size so we can figure out if we need a crane. :rotflm:

Well I got a reply from the owner of the Oak. See below:
"reference to size, figure an S-10 pick up with a short bed, one piece will almost fill the bed. 3 to 4 foot around, 4 feet long. From what a tree expert told me, these probably weigh in around 1100 to 1700 lbs.each without question"
I'll bet Jeff is closer on the weight. This is definitely out of my league, I would be more than glad to help if someone wanted to do this. Let me know.

I would be willing to help with manpower if this materializes and if it is on a Saturday or Sunday.

You guys be careful - remember logs are some what round. I've had more than one that seemed to have a mind of it's own and get the better of me.
