some times things get in the way of progress... in this case it was a red bud tree that had been here for a while and had a lot of dead limbs it had been here 35 + years. It is/was about 2 foot from where i plan on building my shop so i cut it down Sunday evening... it was alot more solid when i cut into it than i thought... i figured it would be rotten. After some interuptions it was about dark before i finished and supper was waiting, so this afternoon i was piling up some limbs and brought a hunk to the house.
This is what it looked like
It is a dense wood with brown and gold striping and it smells like a cross between sweaty feet and wet dog. Maybe a wet dog with sweaty feet.:rotflm:
has anyone ever work with it. I belive the pic is from a cunk of a large limb. I may try to mill some of the butt log if i get my bandsaw fixed. if not i may have some bowl blanks to share. I plan on swinging by klingpore woodworking store and getting some anchor seal or something similar.
