This blank came from a friend of mine and I left him a message to find out what kind of wood it is. 5x3 with 1-1/2" mouth and 1/4" walls. Took some time orientating this one because of the spalting. It has a very slight foot and if the profile pic doesn't show it, a nice lift. Sanded to 4-0 steelwool and 2 coats of Formbey's Tung oil. I'll add one or 2 more then WoP. The oil really did darken it up and with one more piece of this, I may try something lighter. C&C welcome and encouraged! Enjoy:D
