I sold some red oak and don't you know I had to move a stack to get to it and this is what was on top. It's quartersawn red oak I cut awhile ago. This was straight through the pith so I'll have to rip the pith out when I decide to use it.

Here's another shot of a different board Tom.IMAG0387.jpg I have around 50 bd/ft of the quartered stuff and about 100 bd/ft rift sawn. I've got the butt log still yet to saw. It's an 8 footer by about 30 inches at the small end. I'm going to quarter it also.
 
no tom he has to much of it i got to see it when i was there,, its some sweet looking wood for sure..john when you cut the butt log take and do the gtr method where you make a octagon out of the log to get more grt sawn..it leaves you with a beveled edge but you get better gtr sawn or more of it at least..
