A farmer friend with a sawmill has a large poplar burl. It's about 3 ft long and 3 ft across but is definitely not solid. He wants to know if I could use it for anything. Any chance it's worth the effort to harvest it?
Thanks

I get down to tiny pieces for ear rings, Christmas ornaments, and pens, so a rotten core will still provide good material.

Thanks. I don't turn very often and no where as good as most of ya'll. I'll see what I can do with some of this. If nothing else but a little something for the farmer whose family have been there since the 1700's.
