I have been very quite for most of this year due to a variety of reasons and finally I can get some shop time, Yay!

A piece of Mallee that started out red and now is brown. But still a good piece of burl, hard for carving. 8 spirals each one a full turn, oiled with Danish Oil and buffed.

1. That's a gorgeous piece of wood and your typically impeccable turning and carving work just highlights it even more. :clap: :bow:

2. You carved mallee burl? Are you masochistic or something? That stuff is as hard as concrete-encrusted woodpecker lips. :eek: :D
