Beautiful Bird's eye Huon, well done again Peter, Amos

Gotta love the Birdsye.

The Streamline master strikes again!! Beautiful Peter!!!

That is a nice pen And I agree with the mob love that birds eye
I do like the way you shape your streamlines

Now is birds eye the same as a burl? I always thought birds eye was from the small branches and burl were a cancer type growth. Either way it looks great

Stunning as usual Peter ! I think I will go burn my pathetic huon and wait for some decent stuff to work with lol. Cheers ~ John

John,

If you do burn it the smell will nearly be worth it.

I have burnt a bit of huon while camping on the West coast a lot of years ago, the smell is almost as good as turning it.
