I had my pear tree 'adjusted' a few years ago and kept some of the
thicker branches 3" - 4" in the hope to make some small mementoes out of
the wood. Stuff like a small picture frame.
Every spring that tree says hello in a big way, and most years bears
lots of fruit, which one year was distilled into a pear
brandy..well..that's another story.
I like that tree. To make something out of that wood is purely for
sentimental reasons, with the emphasis on mental. "This picture frame,
*sniff* is made from the tree under which the children played."
*slobber*.

I left the bark on the stumps (stumpettes, as they're not very big)
and after 3 years in a dry basement, I'm sure they're as dry as they're
ever going to be.
What can I expect? Firewood, toothpicks? Or is there a chance I might be
able to use it?

You see, to do this, I'd need a band saw, eh? I mean..like really 'need'
one?

I swear I googled, nothing straight-forward pops up. I know it's not the
same as Swiss Pear. I saw a Tage Frid piece once in that kind of
pear...stunning.
