Got a stuffy nose? Well, my shop is the place to be right now.:D I think I'll bag the shavings and spread some around every now and then. Eucalyptus burl HF, 6" tall by 5 1/2" diameter with only a light coat of Watco on the outside to pop the figure.

That's some beautiful wood Travis.

We used to burn eucalyptus when I lived in SoCal. Stuff burns so hot I had to buy a new grate every year.
