Way back a couple of years ago I swapped a piece of Mesquite for some American Chestnut that Sparky Paessler had obtained. For a variety of reasons I only got around to turning it a few months ago. Because of some end grain cracks that I glued but were still visible I decided to add Butterflies (Pewa's in Hawaii). Here is the result - 10" x 4.5" and finished with WOP.
