I've been offered a 80 lb cherry burl that does have some checking and was cut 6 years ago. What is fair value to pay for it without cutting into it first?

It looks to me that you have 15 lbs of burl and 65 lbs of log section.

That was my thinking.
Just for full disclosure. This person thinks he should get $2 a pound for this in the condition it is in but says he's take $125. I countered with $60. I'd call this probably 20 lbs of burl and rest is log. The log could be interesting in itself, but not $125 interesting.
healeydays said:It's interesting. I have talked to a number of folks that have had a tree cut down and save the burl as they think they have hit the mother lode and it will pay for their Christmas. If you try to explain to them what they actually have, they come off as insulted.

She still thinks you and Daren are very clever men. South Park, here comes your competition. Speaking of South Park, I have a friend who care takes the creator of South Park house on the Wailua River next to the Coco Palms Hotel (site of Elvis's Blue Hawaii).Kevin said:David those aren't my voices. It's a free site called xtranormal where you casn select the characters and voices you want, then you just type the text and the sofware coverts your text to the voices. Way cool site. Tell Suzy I'm not that clever.
You are not missing much.Kevin said:I can honestly say I've never seen a single episode of south park. I never saw a single episode of king of the hill, and I never saw a single episode of any other of those types of shows that I cannot even name. And somehow I don't feel deprived. :i_dunno:
