As many have mentioned, I've been posting quite a bit of thicker stuff lately. I will in continue to do so in the future too, but here is something thinner.
I think it is hackberry, but not sure as it too was found along the road on the way home from work last week. It's about 8" wide and 3.5 high. So far just danish oil finish, but I will be spraying some rattle can lacquer on it soon. The lip is just shy of 1/8" thick and the rest is just a little thicker and no signs of splits so far, some warping but that will add character IMO. A friend already wants it for a gift for her dad so it will be on it's way to Chicago when finished.
Critiques encouraged please.
