    G'day folks, Curiosity gets the better of me with different timbers, I know a lot of you have seen or used these before, just wanted to share in my excitement.

    Nice!! Good for smaller projects.

    Rosewood burls were often used for pipes.

    SAM_0232_Converted.jpgSAM_0233_Converted.jpgHere's some more, Hi dabbler the third pic is blood plum cut yesterday slightly yellowed overnight, all the branches were about 150mm dia. in these pics the 2" square piece is a bit of the same blood plum. The pen blank is some coastal ti-tree, and the topright or top is the same apple tree from te first lot of pics i was hoping natural light showed the grain better(must get a better camera) and the pice on the left is another fruit tree,(see if you can identify it)?
