I could tell the whole drawn out story but I won't. Here's the basic thing. The people next door and I got poplar trees last year. Mine lived and his did not. Died within the month. It's been laying on the earth since then. I was staring at in through my upstairs window cursing the lazy #%*@ for never picking up his crap then WHAM! This thing goes from 8" to 2" in dia and is WOOD! (Gee, a plug builder could use that!)
I'm gonna go over later and offer to chop this thing up into say 9" logs and lob them over my fence! Is it worth it? How long do you guys think this stuff has to sit and dry indoors before turning? For that matter "is it worth turning?"

Thanks,
