Got to visit with friends near Georgetown, TX this weekend and came home with a car full of mostly Mesquite, plus some Mustang Grape over 4" diameter with a huge burl and another burl from a fallen Live Oak. Altogether a very pleasing weekend!

Wow...that's a lot of mesquite.:eek:

I bet if you listen carefully, you can hear the worms munching.:)

Great gloat. Love turning mesquite as you can go from start to finish and it doesn't move. Ought to be a lot of nice turning.

Any worms yet? Seems like I never had a piece of mesquite that didn't have 1) worms and 2) a crack through the pith. But I sure love to turn mesquite.
