I was hoping no one would catch on to that. I ran out of good wood
and had to raid the burn pile

But seriously, I think the walnut on the front of one of them was from
a section most people would have cut out and tossed in the burn pile,
perhaps with a bit of regret. Big ol' knot and a punky spot
surrounded by nice figure. On a different day I might not stop to
save it myself.
