Default Mulberry

Just tried turning Mulberry (I think, it's called "toot" where I live).
Turns easily but has a yellow/green color I don't care for. Anyone have
experience with this wood?
Thanks
Joe



I turned a peppermill and some vases with glass inserts from mulberry
limbs, it definitely had a green color that I found unique. Nice wood to
work with, not too hard not too soft. Not the most stable wood though.

Try buckthorn, it's bright orange color is a knockout and it's got
pretty grain as well.
