The pecan tree was from Bastrop and supposedly was the 10th largest in Texas

Count rings per inch and extrapolate the age from that.

That should make some highly sought after timbers and boards.

Maybe i missed it but where will you be selling the wood at? Be nice to have some of those weird pieces for a project sometime.

It will be a year or so before anything is ready for the kiln, but I'm in League City.

I guess there are some things more beautiful than Texas pecan wood, but it is a mighty short list. Those colors and pattern are amazing.

Looks like some great material for mantelpiece or table tops.

That's a trophy pecan.
Be sure to seal up the ends or it'll end up splitting pretty bad, I found out the hard way.
