Cutting of part of trunk

TOday we had a little help again from my cousin Noor. Dad had received a part of a trunk of a tree called "Bois Noir". The plant is a hard wood and has a very solid core of reddish wood. Dad intends to use this wood to make wooden cleats for tying the boat to pontoons, etc.

In order to cut this trunk, Noor brought his chain saw and within an hour the trunk was cut into slabs as shown below.

Slabs left to dry.
