Hi Bill:
I have seven acres of heavily forrested land in the pocono mountains. Recently we had two soft maple trees downed in a storm and had them cut into boards of 1.25" thick, 7 to 8 inches wide and 8 foot in length. Any experience, comments, musings on this maple for wooden chassis or other audio housing projects?
I also have a Babe Ruth sized Ash tree that is on it's last leg...
and we have two or three cherry trees that must soon be harvested due to damages to them.
it's getting to be a bit of fun stockpiling these woods... though a new learning curve for me.
we've also harvested a lot of hemlock... though all of that wood has been sawn into structural lumber that we are building our cabin with.
cheers,
msl
