Has to be about my best so far...extreme curl!

[clthayer]

Hi all,
Below is curly hard maple. Just one small piece of a pile of lumber I have. Pic isn't that great, but the curl is excellent. Ca/Blo, and I had a fan this time so the fumes were quite bareable. Comments welcome.
Thanks
Christian

Very nice looking pen...personally I think a simpler dark background would show it off more...but that's just me.[]

Christian,
Your right. That maple has some serious curl. I'm glad to hear that you got the CA fumes blowing in the wind and away from your face!

Wow, love the wood!

I did a couple more ca finishes this evening and am really enjoying it now that I am not breathing the fumes. I have a ton more of this maple, been hanging onto it for a few years now. I'm going to have to chop a bit more up now that I have done this one.
