Square logs
At last a log for the sawmiller. Check out this blackwood log that I cut up today. Wish they were all like this. (Maybe it's been genetically modified).
Got some nice slabs too.
cheers

I think it is a relatively common phenomenon in Black woods and Light woods. Around my way I've seen quite a few vaguely squarish logs. Things is I used to cut them up for fire wood. I would not do that now that I know better
