Western Big Leaf Maple Burl - 55" long
« on: March 30, 2008, 04:00:47 PM »
Two Western Big Leaf Maple burls.  The round one is approx 350 lbs, 34"D x 30" small end x 23" high.  The stem weight approx 300 lbs, 15" D x 10.5" D (small end) x 55" long.  I will sell separately or together, asking $3.00 lb, will consider offer.  You pay shipping, I will package at no charge, on pallet and shrink wrapped to protect.

the round one was shown in previous post - trying to get the picture sizes correct.

I just tped in Western Big Leaf Maple Burl, and guess what showed up?  This site and the pictures of the burl.  It has been hit on 488 times.  That is amazing!  However, with all those hits, I still have the log and it decapitated partned.  Sure wish I could sell them both. ;D

I sold some burls this spring, one big leaf Maple about 100lbs and 2 Alaskan cedars about totaling 80lbs. I guess I didn't ask enough for mine but I did sell them for a $1.00 lbs.

This log had a partial sale a few days ago.  I got $2 a pound and a two foot section brought in $210.
