I have two stacks of rough cut lumber that came from trees on my property that I had milled. Most of it is red oak, but there is some maple, hickory, poplar and sweetgum. (over 1500 board ft.) Most of it is 5/4 rough and it is in assorted lengths and widths. It has been stickered and stacked...
If anyone is interested I intend to begin milling down an old growth yellow pine log next weekend. The plan is to cut 12/4 live edge slabs and some 24/4 mantles a/o beams in widths up to 36"
Next on the list will be some nicely spalted poplar, plan is to cut similar sizes in widths up to 14"...
Hello all.... New here... Just moved in from 10 years in Vegas.
Woodworking for about 20 years but now am semi-retired and I'm gettin' serious! Here's my problem. While in Vegas I had a great lumber supplier. Here in Southport, Wilmington area, I haven't found anyone yet so I'm looking for...

This Intarsia Pelican was another joint venture. She did most of the work and was in a crunch for time at the end so I joined in. Here are pictures of it before and after finishing. We made it this year in June and it was supposed to be a birthday gift for her father, but was a monthish late...
I just had a large poplar cut down and am curious if it is worth selling or having cut into boards. I didn't measure it yet, but it's got a nice straight trunk with no knots for at least 16 to 20 feet. Would make some nice timber, but I have no idea how to proceed. I'm located in central NC...
Does anyone know of a source for seasoned Black or Lombardy poplar in 10-12/4 thickness slabs approx. 18-20" wide x 4' long? I'm specific about the black / Lombardy variety, not the common tulip poplar ( I've got plenty of that right in the backyard!).I'm getting ready to build another upright...
