I got a call from a guy that processes firewood. He said he had a special Maple that shouldn't be cut into firewood and would I be interested. I stopped to see what he had and was so interested I brought home a truck load. I will be processing it this weekend and offering some for sale.

Great save Terry! That maple almost looks like it has bubbles in it.

NICE. I got a truckload of curly maple a while back. The quilting on yours is pretty spectacular. Looking forward to seeing some more bowls.
