Think it's been quiet on the site lately--- so thought I'd post this eye candy to stimulate things.
I've got wood that I need to process and use, but it's been really HOT lately. With the clouds, it was just stifling. Anyway, I cut 3 pieces of mesquite crotch with the trusty chainsaw-- it's there for scale (20"). Took pics of both sides. and NO that one crack does not go all the way through.
In my minds eye-- I see some pretties coming.

I have a new found love for crotch blanks after turning my first bowl recently. It's still not completed but I'll get pics posted once it's done. Picking out wormholes is tedious work! Those blanks are going to make some beautiful items.

Beautiful wood. The nice thing about mesquite, hickory and fruit wood is you can save the small chunks and sawdust for the next BBQ!
