Box elder round-bottom end-grain NE

[Patrick Taylor]

... wow, that's a mouthful! This is a Box elder round-bottom end-grain NE done from a branch. It has 2 coats of danish oil and is 3-step buffed/waxed.
I used a bit of CA on the pith, but it wasn't too bad. About 5 inches across.

Very nice Patrick, I especially like the the big dip in the bark on the back side. Wall thickness looks great too.

Thanks everyone! George, here's another shot of the top and a shot of the bottom. The shape reminds me a bit of Oahu, HI.
