Lombardi..

[evo]

So it’s quite a tail that I’ll likely tell more on later. We bought our first house at the beginning of the year and I’ve been tripping on this Lombardi ever since.

Not a huge tree by any means, but had ample crown weight right at the house and a little back lean.

Thought I’d brag a hair, and never mind the mushroom top arbutus

Limbed and topped it all with a axe while tending the 2 year ole (much easier to keep her safe than running a saw).. prepped the bottom 12’ for milling durning nap time (assed out in the car seat). Big bro kept her on his lap while I made a few practice slabs

Nice looking boards, did you use a chainsaw mill?

I've been wanting to play around with more of this myself but too many other things keep coming up. As of right now I do not have a mill, I just freehand my boards with a chainsaw which results in more processing later to use the board

Great to share treework with the family! Nice lumber, too. I carved a chair from a Lombardy and it held up fantastic through the last 2 years until just recently when I ran it over with the trailer

Yes I did. I made one years ago, and only used it a few times, scrapped it and bought one. I had a few hang ups but very happy with the results
