Hi, guys,

As threatened, here is another dish from my diminishing stock of laburnum. This one is only 4" x 2", and is an indication of how little of this brilliant wood I have left.

Thank you, Woody!

Ed, You skipped it? Oh no, you should be burned in purgatory! But I know what you mean - when I think of all the wood I should have kept it makes me wanna weep! LOL!

Bob.

Yeah, so would I, Jim!!! Unfortunately all I have is stout branches which, when cut down the middle, are about big enough to turn 6" max bowls.
