Jim McDonald Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 Just looking at a pallet out back deciding whether to harvest the wood and found this interesting knot. Would have loved to see that branch. Nail head indicates sizing. WayneMahler, RabidAlien, OCtoolguy and 4 others 7 Quote
Rockytime Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 Be great to see something created that would feature that knot. Really cool. WayneMahler and OCtoolguy 2 Quote
WayneMahler Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 Some epoxy for the crack and use it as a feature for a project. I'm sure we won't see another one those stars like that. Totally cool, thanks for sharing. OCtoolguy 1 Quote
OCtoolguy Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 I like that suggestion. Try to use it in some way that the "star" becomes part of the message of whatever you make. A "Star of Bethlehem" ornament or something like that. Great piece of wood. Quote
OCtoolguy Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 (edited) This is the most unique piece of wood that I have ever seen. I'd love to have been the person who found it. I'd have made something frameable out of it. Or resawn it to have more than one piece. Edited November 6, 2020 by octoolguy I had to add this! dgman and Jim McDonald 2 Quote

See https://www.1001pallets.com/pallet-safety/ Verify that your pallet is safe before cutting or burning the wood. OCtoolguy 1 Quote
