I have a Black cherry tree that needs to come down, it's a large tree with a 28" diameter. I plan on doing it soon but was interested in the idea of possibly having them cut into manageable lengths (still a lot of weight, I know) and putting the raw timber on Craigslist.

Not just to recover some of the money taking it down but I hate to see it go to waste. I'd use it for firewood before giving it away.

What do you guys think? Woodturners maybe?

It's the weight that concerns me -- I may not want to mess with it.

well you need to do it now, before the water starts pumping again.
your best time to cut is winter.

About 56 lb per cu ft.
