Ah Chris your a cunning man
This block in particular is it still as is?
Thats the bit I meant would look brilliant as a bowl.
Now the cunning bit is using what ever the latter photos are leaning up against as background even it has amazing grain and texture what is that so white and bright.
I could see some nice boxes made out of both together.
