Done sold the tree, but a chatter gave me reference to a place in NC whom bought it and I was trying to get the name of the chatter.
John Dyer. They're good folks. i hope you got a chance to see their warehouse and production facility. They're into me and a buddy named John Papazian for about 20G, but we couldn't be happier.
Very happy it worked out for you.
Thanks Alot, I will pass along your name to Janet. Steve, his son, and another young guy came 5 and a half hours down to South Georgia to buy the tree from me. It was something to see. They had to have a semi-wrecker with a boom to load it on the flat bed semi that followed them down. Really nice guys. Thanks for giving me the lead on them. NT
That's great. They regularly drive to California to buy the stumps of 2000 year old redwood trees which were logged in the late 1800s. The loggers left very tall stumps because nobody wanted the burl found at the bottom of the tree. Steve has a huge Stihl chainsaw on a hydraulically-operated jig which which cuts horizontally and slices slabs from the length of the tree. The redwood burl tables are gorgeous. I have three of them and it's very cool knowing they're 2000 years old. Tell Janet and Steve I said hi.
