In over my head!

Greetings,

I’m not certain of the appropriateness of this post here, but I figure arborist would know better than anyone. Some gentlemen down the street were clearing branches and cutting down trees and I asked them if I could have some of the leftover wood to which they replied. They have a bunch in their dump, but I would need to take all of it, seeing as their sizable logs that needed to be dumped out of the truck. I asked them what was in it and they said Camphor, some oak and honey locust. I am looking to either confirm or deny these species and or figure out what I am working with. In addition I have heard some scary things on the Internet Internet about Camphor, and would like some advice on best practices for handling.

I thought about making multiple posts with each specific tree, but thought that might get redundant and I didn’t want to spam the group so the best way I can think is just to post the pictures I have of the various logs and take it from there. I appreciate anyone’s help and advice in advanced thank you very much.
