It's good to see slabs being used, I would expect with the firewood shortage in MN we will see more of that.

I have been trying to find good, useable slabs for years. I used 2 truck loads of them to put all of the sides on my tree house, and I would LOVE to use them to put some better sides on my tractor shed, but I would need a lot!

The nice thing about them is that the are cheap, and all I need them for is to keep the snow from blowing in... PLUS they blend in with the woods, and for a while (before I added stuff on) you could be 100 feet from my tree house and you couldn't see it! Always a plus to that.....

I'll bet that burns hot. Burning that wood with sap, would there be more chance of a chimney fire? Stan

If seasoned right makes good firewood !!

Couldn't pay me to burn walnut!

I would agree, I had a small pile of it from a tree the power company took down, seasoned 2 years or more, it burned hot, nice coals, it was well seasoned, bark off etc,

I have my own woods so no problem.

I like walnut to burn. I age it at least a year. I also burn box elder, maple, ash, and elm but mostly oak.

I got an oak to take down this weekend about 28" at the stump. It got struck by lightning and needs to come down. Its got a big limb up nearer the top thats caught up on another nearby oak on our woodline. Thems the ones that bother me because the chainsaw's loud and can't hear cracking up that high. Gotta come down though because its going to anyway, either under my control I hope, or at least as a ton heavy spear out of control when someone might not expect it. Oh well, will be split and seasoned for next winter.

You'll be in pretty good shape this winter.
