I got three sections of a tree from my BIL who got it from someone else. The original cutter told him it was "either mulberry or Bois d'arc". There were no leaves attached and the bark was all grunged up with vines.
How to tell the difference? It is orange/yellow wood. It seems like I've heard that mulberry is associated with an unpleasant smell when being turned. There is no smell on this.
Any pointers?
