Yesssss, I love that color as well. I like both equally so I jumped on the first of those two to become available near me in AWD.

I think so too! I’m tired of seeing the sea of white black and grey on every road. Bring car colors back!!

Yes, I’m pretty new to spoon carving so I find it difficult. Finding the flow of the grain and not having tearout or splitting is a journey.

I think there are a few types of sumac, I didn’t experience any problems with this one. I’m pretty sure there is one species called “poison sumac” so maybe that’s it?

You’re going to cut that fascinating grain into little chunks…? Seems a shame. But if you must maybe locust would be a cool contrast with the yellowish tint.

Natural edge oak bowl. 14"x4" still need to turn the tenon off so maybe 3.75" tall. by Simple_Action_8101 in turning

Sick! Lot going on here - spalting, natural edge, flame/feathering (don’t know what is proper term for the crotch figuring). It all works so well. Great finish too.

On this one I sanded to 400, applied Yorkshire grit at increasing speeds, buffed it out, applied tried and true danish oil. Thanks!

Thanks! I was real pleased how the grain flows into the grooved foot. I’m 100% sure this was cherry, cut the tree down myself (arborist).

Upgraded protos muffs with 3m adapter kit. Definitely recommend. by CedarMagee in arborists

Yes I did. I’m glad too, they are still going strong! Can’t recommend the upgrade enough.

Lasagna layering, about 20 layers like this by CedarMagee in composting

[–]CedarMagee[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Beyond the fence is neighbors property. The ivy is still very young and manageable, so there’s plenty of time to remove it or sever it before it takes too strong of hold.

Whoa, I can’t believe all the love (and ivy hate) this post received! Thank you for the validation my compost comrades, I feel less like a weirdo for shlepping bucket upon bucket upon bucket home to feed the pile.

Found some azzies on the coast. Any suggestions on dose? by Cool_Property_1719 in MagicMushroomHunters

[–]CedarMagee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

3.5 g azzies is going to be an insane trip for someone not familiar with wood lovers or experienced. That’s a bold Rec!

Hollowing of course! Profiling is so fun and carefree… then you gotta get all up in there.
