Ash tree is down

Finally got the tree guys to come take down the ash tree that was partially blown down in the wind we had awhile back. I got optimistic about what to do with the main trunk and had them leave me some big pieces. There are several pieces 2 feet in diameter and a big crotch section. Is there anybody with a large swing lathe with an interest in some ash for turning?
Incidentally, it was a 110 ton crane they brought to do the deed.

I'd be interested in a piece or two. How long are the pieces?

Sounds good to me, but a long way to go for me.

Rich, the 24" diameter piece is 32" long and the 22" diameter piece is 34" long. The crotch piece is about 18 to 20" wide and over 48" long with the two stub branches beyond the crotch. I roughly figured the 24" diameter piece is over 8 cubic feet and since the tree was alive and wet means it is pretty darned heavy. I'm on the other side of Jordan Lake from you.
