Mango Milling question

[Kim de Rijke]

Hello folks,

A friend of mine is cutting down his old backyard mango tree. It's 60cm width max, circumference about 2m (see pic, incl a 1m tape measure). I'm wondering whether it's going to be at all productive to try and mill some of it. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Kim.

Maybe some uke sets.

That mango tree's just a baby. A 2m diameter is not unusual up here in FNQ. Outside one of the local nurseries is a mango tree at least 4m in diameter. It's the biggest mango tree I've ever seen.

Tie some spare sails to it next time a cyclone is due won't you Liam ?
