Default Making lumber from cherry tree

My cherry tree has not put out any twigs or leaves for 2 seasons in a row.
It is dead. I would like to make some lumber, or, maybe cut it into chunks
to make turnings. The trunk is about 18" in diameter and 9 feet tall. I do
happened to have acreage and a backhoe. Decades ago I read that you are
supposed to bury the trunk for something like 3-4 years.
All suggestions appreciated. BTW, tree is in the Northwest. Lots of rain.
