The Natural Art of Wood

[LarryEA]

I was given a 16 inch slab of Walnut that actually was a piece of the root.

This Walnut is very dense and my band saw blade had a problem cutting it.

These four pieces are all I have cut from it so far.

They are small but beautiful.

They show the beauty of Walnut.

I could not decide what to do with them and

my Wife said, 'Just leave them natural'

So here they are:

You luck boy!!!! Where the stump meets the root is most often the most beautiful part of the wood in most trees.   :thumbs:

The picture is poor justice for how they look. Sorry about how I explained them.

They actually are finished and on stands.
