Oak burl. John should be able to get atleast 1 big HF from it along with a burl cap depending on his plans

Ken, I dare say, I have mixed emotions!!!:D Sure looks like a great hunk of wood, and I am excited about digging into it - but the thought of wearing out a gouge doesn't do much for me. But, then, on the other hand, gives me a chance to buy a new toy!!!

I really appreciate it, Ken!!! Do let me know what the shipping cost is!

Looks like a great piece of wood. I'm sure John will sculpt it into a beautiful piece or art.

Hi John, I tell you what......I will swap this piece of crap red cedar that I am trying to turn for the oak burl;);):D. Sounds like a good swap to me. LOL. Look forward to seeing what you end up with.

Shoot...I'll up that bid and send you two pieces of CRC for the oak burl!
Look forward to seeing the results from this piece John...be sure to take lots of pics.
