So, I get a call this morning from a wood mill that I frequent alot.
"Hey Mike, you remember when I asked your advise on how I should cut those logs two years ago? We cut it, and stuck it in the kiln right after you were here.
It`s been stacked in the back for about a year and half now, and we finally worked our way back to to it........I figured I would give you first crack at it?"
My reply, hmmm.......how much yield did you end up with?
"I think enough to keep you happy for a while"
My reply, Ok, send it over!
His delivery guy shows up this afternoon with a crazy stack of 10' long boards of this:
300 bd. ft. of 5-A quartersawn Curly Maple.
A few random samples.
And another crazy stack of this:
350 bd. Ft. of some wicked African Mahogany, also in 10' lengths.
No knots, mineral streaks, or bug holes in any of it.
The most consistant figured, and cleanest wood I have seen in a long time.
It was a good day
