Score!
Too bad to lose the tree, but for that amount of black walnut, it would be worth buying the tools you need to work it.
That’s a great puzzle! The contrast of the woods is perfect for the effect.
My Son in Tennessee had a house built in a development, and the property had a black walnut that had to be taken out for the build. That sucker was 3 feet in diameter, and yielded 2 arrow straight logs, one just over15 feet and one over 12 feet!!
Too bad he didn’t get to keep it. I counted the rings and it was 240+ years old.
