    If it's what I think it is, it's going to be pretty dense wood, and looking at the core of one of those log's, possibly as hard as Iron-bark.
    If so, you might be better off cutting the logs quartersawn ASAP, then air drying the more manageable pieces.

    Thanks Tweaky, definitely out of my comfort zone now. Maybe DB or Wokka will see this and come and grab some if they think its usable.
    Cheers,
