I wrote about the nice black walnut logs I had and have since added two Chestnut trees ad one Locust to my stack of logs ready to be slabbed / cut into lumber.
Owenby and Moretz came by and indicated they would be back, one fellow want $650 to come and take the logs to a sawyer and return the...

I have black locust lumber for sale.
It came from a property in Western NC from 1 to 2 large trees. It was air dried as rough cut lumber in a barn for 5 years. I surfaced it 10 years ago but have not used much and want to sell.
475 board feet of S3S 13/16" thick x 4" to 12" wide x 14ft...
Looking for 8/4, 5/4 and 4/4 rough locust. I am hoping to use over the winter to make several Adirondack chairs and a couple of garden benches. From what I read, it should last very well outdoors.
Lumber sources close to Richmond VA would be preferred.
I saw one posting on craigs list near...
Here's another table I'm working on for the front porch, it's Quarter Sawn Black Locust HARD wood, it sure is pretty though... This wood about worked me silly, it burns real easy and had to progressive sanding fom 20 grit to 220 grit. I sanded every piece. It's silky smooth now and hard as a...
Hi Y'all, I am wondering if there is anyone that might have or know of a place where I could find some kiln dried 2"x6"'s 8' & 10' long. I was thinking of replacing my deck with locust as it has rot resistant quality and bug resistance. I would only need to smooth one side and was thinking of...

HL in our neck of the woods usually succumbs to heart rot long before they get this big. This two footer is a rare find here. The wife claimed this for more wide plank flooring. I told her she better have patience it will be well over a year before I can turn it into flooring the kiln is backed...
I have one locust tree on my "half-acre wildlife preserve". We'd lived here 6 years before I ever saw a locust sprout. Now a year later, and I have 7 sprouts I am trying to nurse to sapling stage.
How far should I keep the sprouts apart? I've culled a few smaller ones within one foot of a...
This is a bowl turned by one of my 9th grade students. The only thing I helped him on this bowl was the finish. It is around 9" in dia. by 5" high. It is turned from a locust burl he found.

Well I started squaring up some of the QS Black Locust I took to Scott over the summer, errr... this is most defiantly hardwood, I'm thinking I might as well go grab some bricks they would be softer. At Janka 1700 is nearly identical in hardness to Padauk, which I've seen a lot of you guys work...
I have a locust guy up in Boone, but he doesn't saw what I need, which is...
8" X 8" X 14'-16'...I need 13-14 of them.
