Love a man that has such high hopes about things. My guess is that those logs were worth the most as firewood. Problem is that you can't even put the ash in the garden!! Walnut is a toxin to other plants.
So your saying $15 a board foot for Walnut that has a lot a figure in it is high hopes? Most of that sold a long time ago but I did keep the best ones for myself so we might never know.
Good video, looks like you two had fun playing with water! Curious as to how you plan to split them up when the time comes as it's not like a stack of 2x4's where every one could be considered identical.
We will probably split it down the middle but keep the bookmatched slabs together. Most likely mine will go towards projects to sell and not necessarily selling by the slab. I don't have that kind of inventory just yet.
In my area, comparable slabs go for about $15 a board foot in one of the wood working stores. They would be kiln dried but I think the price is still pretty accurate. Thanks for watching!
I'm in Chattanooga, Tennessee. I think the price will vary around the country and whether or not you have to import the slabs to your area. I doubt I will sell them and most likely will use them in project videos for different tables. Thanks for watching.
If your looking to sell a good place would be you local lumber yard. They could probably put you in touch with someone who harvests trees, mills them and sells to the yard. For a tree in your yard you are probably only looking at selling for a $1-$1.50 per board foot. You can go online and find a calculator and put in the dimensions of your trees to get a good idea of value.
Hi DavidKarl. I am trying to start a small veteran business out in southern state. Are you by chance in the lower side of the state? PLEASE let me know asap

Another enjoyable and educational video, thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it
Beautiful slabs!!! I’m anxious to see what you decide to do with it.
You and me both!
Good video thank you
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching..
Very nice looking wood.
Thanks! I'm happy with it and on the hunt for more crotch logs.

With the Solar Kiln. Could you not go straight into the kiln? Especially as the temps are coming down here in Tennessee?
"They" say walnut should air dry a bit before going into a kiln. Thanks for watching!
Looks good
Thanks!
On the prices per board foot you showed us, were those kiln dried prices, air dried prices or as is from the mill prices? Enjoyable video and thanks!

I have a lot of black walnut including a very large tree . Any interest? Located in central New Jersey.
A bit far for me to go but thanks for asking!
Where are you located. I'm in Western Wayne County New York and and don't seem to have much of an idea what slabs are worth Is in my area

Also the prices you are giving out, Is that after solar kill dry
yes.. from what I have seen, green slabs sell for about 1/3rd the cost of dry slabs.
got a link to those cant hooks?
They are from the manufacturer of the sawmill and I've been happy with them. cookssaw.com/cant-hook/
@@hillbillychic3933 ty, they look substantial :)
I have a lot of black walnut trees in Michigan if anyone is close and wants the wood.

Why is the gentleman at 4:22 wearing a respirator?
The sawmill throws out a lot of dust..
Wow, the costs are pretty amazing. Impressive work!
Thanks! Hopefully even more impressive as a table or something.
