    Default Massive Sugar Gum about to be cut down

    A general call for help. Is there any one in Adelaide who can or who knows who can mill a giant ( 35m) sugar gum in Woodville South Australia. This tree has dropped branches that have hit neighbours houses, the owners sheds etc.
    Sadly it has to come down now despite being an icon in the neighbour hood- it is almost 2m diameter three meters above ground. Any help is appreciated. I am claiming some firewood but it would be a tragedy if some of this wood was not saved for giant slabs etc.
    Cheers

    Wom,
    There is a lucas mill group on facebook someone off there might be interested in slabbing it or cutting it up into boards. The hard/expensive part will be getting someone to fell it. Especially if it's close enough to drop branches on neighbours etc. I'd suggest having a pro come and do the felling then see who is keen to mill it. Ashley Edwards from AE Timber Milling South Australia is one guy based down south towards Goolwa I think. 0439 047 336. He might be keen on it. Otherwise there are a few guys around the hills area but I don't have their contacts sorry. Cheers.
