Dan Forman. It's FRUITCAKE?!?!


YES!!! It's fruitcake. Not just one but two beautiful fruitcake blanks. Just look at the incredible color and figure in this stuff! I can't remember ever seeing material this nice. And this ain't that old dried out stuff from six Christmases ago. This is nice fresh material.

I already have one of them on the lathe ready to turn. Better stand back, boys… this could get messy…

I'm pretty sure that this one goes against the grain in pretty much every direction!
