hi guys

thank god we didn't have to slice that off by hand , must have been one mother of a saw that did cut it

 

[LocalOak]

Come on, its a very very very small man and a Tonka Toy

Hi guys

come on who going to try and guess the value of it then , i ain't got a clue but I'll start the ball rolling seeing its a Tonka lorry and a very very small driver I'll say five pounds

I saw a board of cedar when I was in Oz. last year about the same size and it was priced at $1600 aus.

So I will go for $1200 on the piccy above and in the mean time I will email the proprietor in Oz and get a price and broadcast after everyone here has placed their estimate.

 

[Mark.R]

In response to Devonwoody`s last, how about we all guesstimate the price it went for, and the closest to that price wins a prize??!!

Was thinking something like a Scheppach 4000 sawbench with all the works for first prize, and a Scheppach 2500 for second and a Lidl screwdriver set for third!!

Sadly.... I am only joking!!

:lol:

OK, my guess is $14,540 Aussie.

And I like the prize idea, one lidl screwdriver for first, two for second etc.

I have received a reply back from the Australian timber merchant, I have deleted the retail price indication from this post so, have a go at the value.


that burl weighted in at 14 ton we ripped it in half to get mill over it and got some nice slice's That one leaning next to the truck. size 1800mm wide 80mm thick 3300mm long and that was not the biggest slice .It would retail for around >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> dollars

 

[Taffy Turner]

Are we talking price for the whole burr, or just that slice?

I reckon the burr as a whole would be worth $55,000 Aussie.

Regards

Gary

 

[devonwoody]

just the slice Gary

Hi guys

seeing i started this lot off its now seems to be getting serious, so I'm going to guess a more serious guess and say its round about 3,300 Aussie dollars

 

[head clansman]

Hi guys

hey tell you what if any body can love to see a picture of the saw that cut that burr up.

 

[Taffy Turner]

just the slice Gary

In that case, my guess is £12,500 Aussie.

Gary

 

[seanybaby]

That could make a nice coffee table :shock: :lol: :lol:

7,815.89 AUD my guess.

12500 dollars?. Why on earth didn't they veneer the whole thing. Then it would make an astronomical total!
