How many Cherry bowls can you use?
No offence to the Cherry bowl people.
But I recently cut down a couple of Cherry trees for a neighbour and
acquired all the pieces for firewood. I had considered getting them milled,
but the useable pieces were just over 4' and not overly straight. I suppose
I could have gotten some 8" boards out of the larger tree (Doh), but I
really had no way to lift it or transport it to the mill. Two guys still
can't lift the stump that's left from the larger tree.
Anyway I noticed that the logs from the larger tree have a nice pattern, so
I'm wondering what else I could do with some of the logs other than make a
****load of bowls. I don't own a lathe and don't really see myself owning
one for a while. Any ideas?
