Cut up some nice dry White Box burl yesterday ... (I liked what I saw)

White box, so you used a water jet to cut it?
Turns beautifully, if you like sharpening your expensive high end turning tools every 2 minutesPat

Ok Ian, can hold it but you have been warned ... although it "turns beautifully" (if it makes it to your lathe) you may not like "sharpening your expensive high end turning tools every 2 minutes" You have to work quickly in the 2 mins between sharpening I guess.
PS: Its not for sale yet but its on hold for you if and when it is for sale.
