Daniel's banjo is pretty much done

In June of 2010 a major storm passed through Northern Indiana. It felled trees and power lines and caused significant property damage. On one 20-acre lot over 60 trees of various species were felled by strong winds, including cherry, ash, maple, and walnut trees. One of the mills I work with handled the clean up of that lot. Rather than chipping the trees or cutting them into firewood, the logs were sawn and kiln dried, producing thousands of board feet of beautiful, high-quality lumber. My latest shipment of ash and cherry neck blanks were just a few of the many pieces of lumber that came out of that.
