Wow, nice haul of salvage lumber. It is amazing how resistant to rot Red Cedar is. As far as I know, the closest thing we have here in Denmark with that kind of resistance is oak (Quercus Robur). I still have a few oak trees lying around that blew down in a storm in 1999. It looks like the dogs dinner on the outside, but is mostly solid dry wood once you open up the log. The main reason I havent salvaged them is a lack of machinery. Having to haul oak on a wheelbarrow is a recipe for very long arms 😀
That is a nice amount of money for the time you spent in the woods on this. I am surprised at how much value there was left in those old logs. From the outside they did not look good.
Im in Vancouver BC and ive been 4x4ing all over the mountains in and around Vancouver and I've been in places where the native Indian loggers have gone in to old clear cuts and look for the old giant cedar stumps and harvest the most amazing chunks of cedar and the stumps look absolutely rotten but they are so big that the middle is in magnificent condition, cedar shakes mabe?
Do you do any forestry consulting work? The property I have is in Colville, WA. It's filled with 76 acres of great timber, but has a couple oddball challenges that I'm not sure how exactly to tackle.
I’m new to cutting lumber I have a small mill and have milled some good looking cedar the last few weeks for family use. But how do you find the Market to sell?
That's good money, Jason. Money that could be put towards renewing the extended warranty on your old skidder and excavator. 👍

Waste naught want naught. It's great that you have a market for them

Western red cedar is perfect for decorative outdoor furniture & planters
I see you found the muddiest place you could. Good job.

I sell on craigslist and FB market place. Can't keep it in stock
Hello hi bro🤜🤜🤜😊
The reason there is good money in it is your not a logger with logger overhead.
I hate butt rot
