A friend who does some absolutely wonderful wood pieces and I went to my land yesterday
to harvest some raw material.  We cut three burls and an old butternut tree. Great fun.

Interesting DE.  A Butternut tree.  I see they are mostly in SE and Central MN.  Like a Walnut tree.   Don't think I have seen one.  Nice big tree.  Can't wait to see the creation with the burl.
