Work in Progress", Manitoba Maple Winged platter. I have been really pleased
with the red in the wood. I know it will turn brown over time but that is
all right too. Now I am wondering if the foot should be larger for more
stability but this is nice.

Opinions are welcome.

Nice looking piece, Darrell- I'm a little jealous, too. I've been
looking for some boxelder for a while now, but every time I've asked
after it, people just mumble about bugs and have nothing helpful to
say about where I might find the stuff. I know I'm kind of on the
edge of where it normally grows according to the field guide I've got,
so that might be the problem...
