Good morning all!
Here is a few picutures of what I brought home and what I have to go work on in the near future. I finally got the burls that were at my cousins place that the loggers brought up to the house. They all are hard maple, with the small one mostly just a scab, but will have something in it. The other pictures are of a variety of woods that will have lots of character in them. The hills are too muddy right now so I need to wait until it dries out a bit to get them out of the valley. I took pictures of about 20 different chunks that were right off the logging roads, with 100's more scattered around the woods. More burls in the mess as well, looks like my buddies 4 wheel drive Kubota will be put to work along with my Polaris ATV! I will post some more pics when I get them cut into blanks.
Pic 1 burls, Pic 2 is 2 butternut trees cut and left to rot, Pic 3 Hard maple crotch, Pic 4 looking up the valley, Pic 5 Hard maple multi limbed crotch 26" across and 7' long!
