Default Re: What can I build with 7,000 bf of Va. pine?

Wow, I wish I could figure out what to do with some of the pines I have around. I've got about twenty Doug Firs that are about 36" at the base and somewhere around 100+ feet tall that I want to turn into something one of these days. Around here, though, mills are nowhere to be found. These old pines look like they're at the end of their lifespan and it would be great to do something constructive with them.

Made me laugh. I once referred to a douglas fir as a pine in front of a sylviculturist. He read me the riot act regarding my taxonomic blasphemy.
