I decided to turn a piece of Holly burl that was given to me, and found
that internally, there was some gaps and worm holes. No problem! The
big 'turquoise smile' went in about a 1/2", so it would have been
scrapped if I did not have some nice filler. Total length is 7".
The resolution is poor for internet pictures, but up close and in person,
there is a lot of different directions of grain in the white areas.
