Blue gum eucalyptus...

Blue gum eucalyptus...

I have a friend in Southern California who sends me his trash wood once in a while.  Neither of us think the wood is trash but the wood he sends is harvested from invasive species. One of my favorite trash species is blue gum eucalyptus.


I think it turns perfectly, is easy to sand and finishes like a dream.


This little box is 2 1/2" tall and 3 1/2" in diameter. 


Mikey, send me some more trash.

I live in San Diego and use it all of the time.  Eucalyptus checks quickly after cutting, so it must be roughed pretty quickly after felling.
