    Red Elm Tree Felled

    A friend of a neighbor came by today and limbed and felled my stricken elm tree. I didn't realize how much work it was to safely drop a tree. This elm had a pretty good spread. Peter limbed selectively to get the weight where he wanted it and remove any limbs that could get caught on a...

    Dying Tree I.D. - Is this an Elm?

    Found this limb down this morning. Looking closer the tree is missing a lot of leaves. Somehow I never noticed it was dying. The limb is pretty big. Cleanup will be a pain. I think I may need to bring down the entire tree unless there's a chance of saving it. I think it's an elm tree...

    Elm Disease?

    Started working on the beds I"m building and several ends of the boards have a fungus-like, hole-like patterns (making parts of the boards nearly useless). Is this what they refer to as Elm Disease? If not, what is it? Sorry for the crappy pics. :-)

    I fought the Elm....

    And this time I won:eusa_danc:eusa_danc. I got a few pieces of American Elm from Jeff last year. I tried to turn the first piece and almost gave up bowl turning. The interlocking grain and overall hardness of the wood made turning it green feel like it was petrified:BangHead::BangHead:. Well...
