Ain't it a shame
« on: January 22, 2012, 09:12:56 PM »
Some guy cut all this maple up into short, short blocks. I found it and thought "firewood for the shop". Imagine my surprise when splitting and found it was curly from start to finish.  A high $$ log wasted.  I do try to salvage some but...its just butchered up too bad.  Can you see the curl in this piece??
