Here is a cherry burl that I got from a logger friend of mine. As you can see, this was a very large cherry burl and was completely on one side of the tree trunk. One piece is 4 1/2" thick the other is 6 1/2" thick (burl cap). Can't wait to see what this will look like once I get it turned.

Somebody's shop is going to be smelling sweet! Great gloat for sure Steve.

sure hope you know how to core. Beautiful wood! I have to go wipe the drool off my chin.

Barry, as I use to tell the kids when I was teaching, "Just wanted to see who was really paying attention." :-D
I tried to correct that but for some odd reason it didn't get corrected.

Bob, I have done some coring, but I think I will practice some before I tackle these pieces of cherry burl.
