My dad mentioned a while back that he'd like me to make him a mortar and pestle to use in the kitchen. His birthday is coming up, so this is what he's getting. It's red eucalyptus, about 4" wide by 3 1/2" tall, sanded to 600 grit and finished with Myland's Friction Polish and a wax wheel buffing. It's been a while since I turned any of my red euc stash. It's pretty dry now, and plenty hard, but it never fails to please when it comes to nice grain. This stuff has the look and smooth texture of marble.
It's nothing fancy, but I'm pretty sure my Dad will like it.
