My neighbor invited me to go logging (he's a pro) with him--said I might find something to turn. I brought back a pickup truck full of stump blocks including Hackberry, Siccamore, Walnut, Basswood, and Redbud (pictures attached, I hope). I got stump blocks from many of the logs you see in the pile.

Now if I only knew how to turn. :D


Four pictures are now all less than 39kb. Hope this works.
Thank you for your help.

Track down one of the southern Missouri turning clubs and drop by with a truckload. You'll make lots of friends and you'll be turning in no time.
