I had a native hemlock milled from a tree on my property I had to cut down for my cottage build. The plan is to use the wood for counter tops and fireplace mantles.
Ends up I have one 9”x9”x50” center cut that I won’t be using. The one center cut factors to about 250$ of the entire mill order. It can be milled down to two 4.5”x9”x50” pieces. Or some other dimension. Or can be carved, or put up as one awesome giant mantle. Or maybe you have other ideas for a beautiful chunk of native coastal wood.
Let me know.
