Got Agave??

Last year's 6'3" fish. This years Monster Agave.
These Agave stalks range from 9' to 11'. The bases range from 10" to 14".
It appears to be all very good, stable wood. It can yield a much bigger board than the 6'-3" fish, with plenty left over. I'm waiting to see exactly what I have to work with after I have milled it all before I make a final decision on the board it will become. I will keep you posted.

Danny boy, I'm cutting these outside so it's not a problem.
They are super dry......and it's is some of the best quality firm wood inside as well as huge. Aloha Bro, JC
