burl

[hughie]

Here we go a burl of unknown origin, its hard and very dense, suggestions gentlemen. Stands around 5" or 125-30 mm high and and 4-4.5' OR 100-115 mm dia, finished with WOP awaiting a buff to knock back the gloss.

Neil that is a beaut like the gloss look on it helps highlight the grain and as you know I am not a gloss fan.

That is outstanding grain!!!

Love the form!!:2tsup::2tsup::2tsup::2tsup:

Was thinking perhaps yellow box burl?

not sure if it could be Brown Mallee as it was very light before I soaked it in DIY DO. It would have been as light as if it had a yellow in it.
But thanks for all the kind comments
