    English Walnut

    I found a lady willing to give me a bunch of freshly cut English Walnut. Do any of you have experience with this wood. Should I pick up a little or a lot or all of the tree?

    I would get as much as you can. I have turned a few pieces of it and it is some nice, pretty turning wood.

    Was probably the same one Gary. The lady said she had several responses, but would like it to go for something other than firewood. I told her "I'm your guy" and promised to make her a bowl from her tree.
