Now this is a tree

I took down a pecan tree about 10 years ago that was 5' at the base. It tapered as it went up but still large. That walnut looks like it don't taper much for a lot of feet going up. Wow. Think of all the bowls and stuff I could turn from that baby!

I'd be curious to hear how much cash that tree generates. Sure is a beauty.

one large tree for sure, the biggest one i cut was in the mid fortys at the stump. cut a ash that 54" had to split it to get it on the mill.

Definitely a beast of a walnut. : thumb: I'm impressed with the heartwood to sapwood ratio, too.

I have a close friend that had to have an oak tree taken down in her front yard... the tree was 52" across the top of the stump they left in the ground... My friend named her tree Isabella. I ruined 3 chain saws trying to cut a couple of burls and the limbs off Isabella... got lots of nice turnings from her, but left the trunk for someone else.

BTW, I've decided that my problem with the chainsaws was my ignorance, not a fault of the saws... two were electric and I've since figured out my extension cord was too small... I need at least a 14 or 15 amp cord and was only using a 12 amp... under size cords are bad for electric saws.... the gas saw I'm pretty sure my gas/oil mixture was too lean in oil...

There is a huge amount of really beautiful things in there.

Only a wild imagination can see for sure what is in there.

WOW - what a haul that would be.

That is a big tree !
