    Default York Gum Burl

    Hey There,

    Just Finished a couple of York Gum Sierras for a Client, just got to wait for Lazer Len, to do all the fancy Trophies for the Wood Show, and then he can engrave these for me

    Hey there,

    Thanks for the comments, much appreciated,
    The finish is the usual micro mesh to 12,000 then about 6 or 8 CA thin and a couple of medium thrown in for good measure, and that's it.
    I brought the piece of Burl from Djaralmari Timbers from Esparence at the Wood Show in Perth last year, I will take them and show Neal and Carla tomorrow
