Got out the chainsaw this morning to cut a blank of cottonwood that's going out in the mail on monday and decided to turn the other half of the blank.
Got it roughed (kinda like driving in a rainstorm with no wipers, this stuff is WET) and got a nice surprise when I saw some spalting!
Pics are the roughed outside, the face before roughing the inside, the roughed inside and the blank thats going in the mail (for the recipient, you know who you are, hope you enjoy it!), and for those that haven't had a chance to turn green wood, a nice pile of green turned curlies :D

The roughed out bowl (about 10" x 5") is now soaking in my DNA bucket and will be taken out next weekend.
