My First Spalted HF

[Christopher Hunter]

Wow this one was tricky.....
My grandma had a neighbors Mulberry branch fall into her yard and he decided not to touch it.....
his loss is my gain..
got a few totally spalted pieces and a lot of normal ones, so I will be set for a little while.
Man I never new this stuff was so hard to turn, I had tear-out all over and it was so soft, Oh my, oh my...
anyways,
7" tall - 3.75 Dia
3/16 wall sanded to 600 and one coat of wipe on poly .....
Comments always welcome....

Thanks

Beautiful piece of wood Christopher....Nicely done.

Friday I drove through LaSalle-Peru enroute to Mendota. If I'd noticed that you were from LaSalle....I'd have called and met you for a cup of coffee!

Really nice vase Chris - beautiful spalted wood!

Christopher, that is a real beauty! Great Job! Next time use some MinWax Wood Hardner; it really makes a difference on spalted stuff that is getting soft.:)
