Both are: Platypus Gum (George) - Body; Eucalyptus Burl (CSUSA). Cap.

I have made 9 so far, these are the first 2.

Mark,

Those ornamental pieces are very pretty and you make them nice, no wonder why you have so many to make...!

A little helping wood box is coming to help you out with the raw material needed I hope you like it...!

Keep showing them to us, as you make them, please...!:biggrin:

Cheers
George
