Some of the pen blanks I took to the show, are from the same round of wood.

Thanks guys.
Thought you might like to see these.
This is the tree, before felling, well over a year ago.

I've only harvested one small round from it,so far, the rest has been left on earth, in a shady spot, to do its own thing. Will be blanking some more up in the near future.

Oiled finish Neil? A lovely bowl from smashing timber :thumbs::thumbs:

Sorry, Yes Doug.
Food safe oil in fact.
I tend to finish most of my bowls in it.
This will get a few more coats over the next couple of days.

Thanks for the comments everyone.
Brought a couple more rounds home yesterday to blank up.
Have had to order a new blade though, as it's like cutting concrete!
