A new delivery-What have I here?

[hareball]

I'm guessing more of that Hemlock and the other some kind of Maple? Not sure about the others

 

[smokinj]

frist one ash, far right bottom coner looks like white oak

 

[hareball]

Thanks Jay! I never had ash before. I thought it was but the driver was not sure.
I was thinking top right was hard maple? and bottom left was hemlock?

 

[wooddope]

Top right looks like silver maple left bottom is what us northerners call red pine......... yeah pretty sure. Smokin's nailed the other two

 

[hareball]

Thanks! That red pine any good? It looks like I have that plus a 6' section about 22" across.

 

[JustWood]

1 I dunno.
2 Silver Maple
3 Red or scotch pine.
4 Pig hickory

With that I think the one to the left of the White Oak is Pine. Maybe Pitch..??

Jay, look again at that first picture. Methinks that is not ash.

 

[Pagey]

That last pic looks a lot like the bark on the hickory I burned last year.

Jay, look again at that first picture. Methinks that is not ash.

are you thinking tulip? not sure on any wood ID just I just go with a solid guess for what I see everyday...Lee has to get it right for what he does so if he dunno its not ash

 

[Pinerat]

Bottom left looks like pitch pine.

 

[Tony H]

1 looks alot like linden / tulip tree / yellow poplar that I have in the front yard

2 What gives it away as silver maple ?lThe wood and bark look a bit darker than the s maple I have

 

[PA. Woodsman]

I believe that the 1st one is Mulberry; look at the yellow cutside with a little white sap oozing out. It will turn reddish-brown if I'm right-give it a little time.

I can't see the yellow on my screen , the bark looks a bit more furrowed than the one I was cutting a couple days ago I will have to go take a better look in the daylight.


Just so happens Lucky Phil posted a pic of the muberry he has and looks just like the stuff I have .

#2 is red maple, AKA swamp maple. It's an absolute b!tch to split.

 

[the_dude]

1 I dunno.
2 Silver Maple
3 Red or scotch pine.
4 Pig hickory

I'm with Lee on 2 - 4. I would venture a guess that #1 is cottonwood. I definately don't see any ash there.

 

[Wood Duck]

The second picture is Red Maple, the third seems to be two different types of pine - I think one is Scotch Pine, the log on the left looks like REd Pine or Pitch Pine (not the same trees, just look the same)

 

[SmokinPiney]

#1 might be sweet gum. Give it a whack with a maul and you'll find out quick. Watch your head when it bounces back atcha!

If it aint gum it could be cottonwood or even ginko. We have a HUGGGEEE ginko trunk that sorta resembles that.

 

[mainstation]

betcha a beer that first pic is Willow. my guess anyway.

 

[hareball]

Very yellow!

 

[hareball]

I've never split or burned pine and today I tackled the pine. It's about as fun as making bluefish chum with a wood-chipper. Every hit with the maul produced a wicked spray of sap. It was also really tough splitting. I gave up on the maul and rolled out the little splitter and it made that cry too but got it done. All I have left is a few rounds of that big red pine and then I can move on to the hard wood.

 

[smokinj]

Very yellow!

mulberry

 

[hareball]

Thank you Jay!

 

[hareball]

I think this was ID'd as Silver Maple. Is it normally hard to split? This one was a twisted wavy nightmare! Could hardly see a grain on it, it was like it was poured in the bark lol
