I just discovered a friend cut down several oak and a walnut tree that are about 4 feet at the base last year. They where cut into 8 to 10' lengths and left laying on the ground. It is believed that the oaks died of some disease.

I wouldn't be boring you with this story if another friend with years of logging/sawmill experience claimed these trees would be worth hauling to a sawmill.

The wood would be free. I'd have to pay for the milling. Is this likely to be worthwhile??
