Eastern Elm

[BobN]

Saw the following ad in the Cary paper. I don't know anything about it, just putting it here for anyone that might be interested.

" WOODTURNERS, lavish red-grained Eastern Elm, raw wood lengths, various sizes. Best offer. Call 919-929-9702."

That's exactly as the ad appeared in the paper.

Lavish ?!? Wow and I thought I got excited about grain patterns :roll: . Perhaps I should use "flowery" words like this to spark arrousal, exicitment and desire? Nah...:lol: I do have to admitt, Elm is some pretty wood, but to call it lavish is a little over the line for me...

I have never heard of "Eastern Elm" I wonder if it is Ulmus rubra-Red (Slippery) Elm, U. alata - Winged Elm, or U. americana - American Elm.
That makes a big difference.
