A bump with a question - is noting that the tree was fairly young just an observation, or is there something positive/negative about that or should it be dried and/or used any differently because of it?
This is a somewhat general question, as trees like this being removed is fairly common in neighborhoods. People plant ornamentals (usually pear or cherry trees that don't produce fruit) like they are flowers. They buy them as little more than sticks and are pleased with how many flowers they produce for the next several Springs. Then they start to get big (this one was about 1' in diameter at the lower trunk; the piece I got was from above the first "octapus crotch") and shade too much of the yard and/or crack driveways and sidewalks and down they come. The pear trees get real fragile at about that age/size and big branches break tearing large chunks out of the trunk during high winds or when loaded with snow or ice. Anyway, lots of that stuff is available to the scrounger for turning and carving (most of it is too small to consider milling), but if there is a reason to think twice about it, please let me know.
