We just had a thunderstorm roll through and it took out a plum tree that I had planted when our younger daughter was born (she is 17 now). I don't have a chainsaw as my father has a bunch and I normally just borrow one but this was small enough I chopped it up with an axe.
In the process I got so see some very interesting color from purple, red and oranges to yellow and the figure looks pretty good too.
I know it has to dry so I can use a bow saw and get a couple good slabs. I also recall reading to paint the ends so that they don't crack/split.
Before I go through the effort and stick a couple chunks in our climate controlled basement is it worth doing or is plum not worth the effort? Thinking for revolvers or possibly 1911.
Thanks in advance.
Edit to fix my spelling of plum
