That looks like some of that spalted sycamore that Kip has squirreled away for himself.  I'm sure he will enjoy that one, Nice job Rick!!!

Great lookin call Rick! I knew you could work up some nice stuff with that Ole Sycamore.

Keep the dust mask on when working with that wood. I'd love to see what else you gleen from it. Those trees were cut for a bridge project on Rt 66 along the trapline. Made a super deal with the land owner for them. My miller was having sawing issues and back burnered them. A year later he calls and says," Your wood is cut but it is quite spalted and mineral stained".

I paused a second and said in a slightly dissapointed tone, " O. K. I'll be over to get it".

Turns out to be some really cool stuff that will make singers.

Thanks Rick I love it!
