Post a message with your local wood-turners' group. Someone may well be
interested.


Also, contact any furniture restorers/repairers. They are also on the
lookout for good usable timbers. We passed on a plum trunk to one who
was exceedingly grateful.


As would I be - plum or cherry especially - I want to restock a New
England Rifle. They were usually stocked with fruitwood, especially
cherry, or 'curly' maple.

I was on the local council and we had to severely prune some Holme Oaks. The
local Woodturners turned up in vans and cars to take the logs :-))
