Slightly off-topic but seeing picture's of Sun Ray's constructions made
me think of this. I just discovered that we have about 2 acres of
dutch elm killed Elm trees. Most of the trees are recently dead in the
last year or two. Has anyone ever used these for timber frame
construction? Once dead, does the wood stablize or would it continue
to break down, if it was protected from the elements?
