I've been a little slow in bringing out the camera, so after I got things set up, I decided to shoot several and post them.

Nice pieces, Josh. I like the form on the walnut one a lot but i think my favorite would have to be the maple one with the "hard edge".

Nice selection, Josh, but that "oak" piece sure looks a lot like sycamore with the lacy look to the grain.

Nice work, Josh. You've been busy! I like the second row maple HFs the best.
I'm more of a traditionalist.

You know John, I think you're right.:o I get most of my wood from friends and they call a lot of it Oak, and without leaves, it's hard to know until you really look at it. The only thing was the bark was not smooth, but rough like Oak. What ever it is, it's got nice grain. Wish my photography would do it justice, the grain is kind of iridescent.

Nice selection, Josh, but that "oak" piece sure looks a lot like sycamore with the lacy look to the grain.

Josh those are really nice. I really like the first and the last one.

Josh, rough bark doesn't sound like sycamore, but the wood sure looks like it.

Nice work Josh. The oak/sycamore is very pretty. Try and include a profile shot next time. Without them, any thoughts on form is mostly guess work for me.
