infested with ugly warts
John K Jordan
I was looking today in a shed I don't often visit and found some shelves full of ugly warts I had completely forgotten about, like this one:

I forgot what it is, does it look like maple? (the wood is not red - that's from a warm LED light)
I keep turning wood in six places (that I can remember). I should probably look more often. Or keep notes somewhere.
In addition to the chunks of burl in that shed there was a shelf of manzanita root balls, a huge slab of myrtle, and some 2 and 3" thick planks of persimmon drying about 9 years now. (If you haven't turned persimmon, you should try it. It's hard and cuts clean, is related to Ebony, sometimes called American Ebony or White Ebony.)
Yikes, I have WAY too much wood. Come visit in E. TN and help use it.
