Come on guys!!! It's beautiful riding..:doh:..oops...turning weather :rofl:. I didn't like the final product, but the owner did. 1) a Sapple lidded box that stinks to high heaven. I'm so sick of that smell...I have 2 good chunks left if anyone is up for a wood swap. Then a couple of bottle stoppers from a cherry/maple sandwich. Cheers :thumb::wave::D

p.s. Vaughn...can you rotate that one for me? Thank you sir.:eek:

I've only turned pen blanks in Sappelle, don't remember the smell though...

Did a piece of willow yesterday... nasty swamp smell out of that and it was growing in a neighbors front yard, not even all that close to a ditch...phewwwww..
 
Ha!!! I hate smelly wood...except cedar. Sappelle has a very perfumey smell. Not bad by any means, just a bit over powering when your nose is in it for 2 days. :bonkers::laugh2:
