Mike, I sent you some black locust a year or so ago. I have nothing cut in the shop, however I'm sure I could go out and find a dead log below the house.

I remember that Roy,  it worked out great.  If you have any dry I'd be happy to purchase some off you.  I haven't been able to tell much between honey locust and the black sort.
