2 Willow Leaf Hakea and one Myrtle Sierras
About a year ago the council took out all Willow Leaf Hakeas because they are considered a weed! from the tree out the front of our place grabbed a couple logs, and here they are, 1st two on the left, the one on the right is Myrtle burl. Amos

Beautiful finish!
When all is said and done, there is usually a whole lot more said than done.

Nice pens there Amos. I really like the Hakea family of woods (and closely related species)

Silver Needlewood is a Hakea as well (Hakea leucoptera)... very closely related to Banksias and similar grain pattern to Grevillia (or at least the Grevillia I have used).
