Title: Log weight?
Post by: tacks Y on June 10, 2018, 08:46:36 PM
Can some one tell me what a black cherry log weighs 32 inch dia, 8 1/2 feet long. It was a live tree. Thanks Tom

Found a very helpful tool by googling "log weight calculator", says 2300lbs for your log if it's 8ft

It's under "Extras" above, but also scroll down to the bottom of the Sponsors on the left.  ;D
