Black Jack----wood gloat

[Gary Max]

Called a Black Jack---or----Black Oak Burl.
I got this several weeks ago and just made the time to cut her up.
First in half ----then one half in thirds and the other in half---ended up up 5 blocks of very solid burl
This is my first Black Jack Burl----weight about 300 lbs----30 inchs long

Gary - congrats on your burl score! Sure looks like you will have some amazing wood to turn out of it!

I believe I seen a large lot of planks of this stuff for sale on craigslist lastnight at what looked like a steal of a price...for those in CA.

Great looking wood. Can't wait to see what comes of it.
