Had to take a tree out to pour a driveway at work. I had the tree guy save me a couple of trunk logs. I had no idea it would look anything like this.

My brother-in-law is a big TCU fan so he loves all things purple, so I'll toss it his way for a beer ;)

That's pretty Nick.

Listen, Im not clear - did you dye that bowl are are you saying that color is natural?

Thanks Fred. I dyed it with Pinata "passion purple" ink diluted about 15:1 with denatured alcohol. I was referring to the figuring in the wood. Wasn't expecting post oak to look like that.

Ok, that makes more sense! That grain is gorgeous.

Love it! The dye really makes the grain pop. I hope you get at least a six pack.
