Burl Hollow Form

That is a nice turning but here in west central MN it is hard to believe that service berry could ever produce a burl that large. Last year (2018) we had a bumper crop and were able to make jam but the largest trunk on any of the bushes was only about 1" in diameter.

@Don Wattenhofer It might have been something different but I thought it was the rest of the tree besides the burl was about 2 inches in diameter.

Very nice Kurt! I've not heard of serviceberry but I really like your turning. I love working with the natural flaws in wood, they give it character. I've been turning some lilac root which is ugly when started but has beautiful color and design when finished. I'll try to post a picture on here to compare colors, etc. with your turning.
