I recently purchased a large quantity of wood from an estate auction. The previous owner, now deceased was a prominent woodturner commonly known as "Hillbilly". He was featured in quite a few magazine articles including the first issue of Oneway's Newsletter. The variety of wood, most for woodturning is overwhelming, at least for me. Below is a pic showing one piece that has me stumped as to what to do with it. Is the horny texture on the outside from bark? There are quite a few pieces like it in various shapes and sizes.
