I'm probably near enought to you, I'd have split it or taken some - keep me
in mind next time. I'm in York - where are you?

OK, I'm kicking myself now. qty of 3 piles of KD 8/4 Black Walnut heart
wood 400 board feet each pile, and one 200 board foot pile. Suposedly
was stored dry for 8 years. (It was in the rain at an auction though).
Auctioneer started with the 3, 400 bf, piles first. Winning bidder had
choice, 1, 2 or 3 piles at the winning bid price. The guy won the bid
at $160 and, of course, took all 3 piles. The smaller pile went for
$165. I dropped out of bidding at about $140. My problem was 1, I did
not need that much wood for my next project, and 2, I do not have a
bandsaw or planner or decent jointer.

What I was thinking - If I won I was going to offer to give FREE half
or more of the wood to somone here on the wrec in exchange for some
resawing and planning work. I'm in SE PA. Would there have been any
takers? If there would have been I am really going to kick myself
again.
