Siberian elm

4 x 4 with 1 1/2 hole.
This stuff was hard to turn! Had to open up the hole to get the big tools in!

Phil, nice! I recently got a trailer load of Siberian elm. I have turned several things from that pile. So far I’ve found it very easy to turn, perhaps a bit hairy. It was still very green though. Was your very dry?

Nice job. like the bead at the top!
I respect your ability to hollow that out ( not an easy task).
