Really beautiful wood. Your finish is incredible and compliments the natural beauty of the wood.

I agree with Dario I dont have the patience to wait 2 years. I have a hard enough time waiting the required time for some of the steps needed for turning pens.

Serge,

I cheated a bit and showed some of my best []. Ofcourse best is a matter of preference. The 2 on top are actually burly and the last 3 are figured.

Some of my stock are plain but have any of the following color combinations (beige, yellow, brown, gray, etc). I might try spalting more of them.
