Nice straight white grain, high concerntration of Cyanide, burns quite well green but use in a woodburner or well vented fire. dont cook on the logs or make kitchen untensils from it.

Perfect for a well ventilated shack then!

I will try and find some bits with spalting close the the root and see what kind of knife scales can me made.

Cheers

spot on for burning and turning...just season well. bushwacker bob is right with the cyanide content.
