Long time since I have posted anything. Bought some land, busy cleaning it up and removing trees. Had a really large tree down we drug out with the tractor and was quite surprised to see red shavings coming out as I was cutting it up with the chainsaw. Took some time to figure out it was Paulownia but is only the second time I have seen red in a tree other than that Box Elder. The other time it was a spalted dogwood.
So, is it any good for turning? I know if is very soft wood. I have not turned anything in quite some time but if this is any good I might fire up the lath. I have a very large amount of it and some very large chunks.
