Decided to sort out the other shed over a few weeks just to tidy it up to match the new shed state which is for the time being tidy.

Anyway, I am surprised at what woods I have in there, like this little pile of Laburnum which was tucked at the back and I had forgotten all about it. The large piece is 6" diameter and 30" long. Now what do I do with it, I am sure I will find a suitable project to use it on.

Laburnum is a lovely bit of timber to find and it should be well dried by now.

It was given to me by an old turner who could not turn with it, and it was dry then the end cracks you can see have been there since I collected them and that was 4 or 5 years ago so should be nice and dry now:banana:
