Wow.. Is that the same piece of ash! What a difference.. Would neve have
guessed it would have so much color, mineral deposits and grain variation..
Looks like money to me, Mac.. Just in time for the holiday season..

It's been a real time consumer, that's for sure... Spalting is nice, but there
always seem to be punky spots or weird end grain..

I've been sanding, flooding with Danish oil, and sanding.. about 5 times so
far.. More sanding than I should need, but it's a pretty deep undercut and I
don't have the skill or tools to do it without major tool marks at the
transitions..

Hoping that in this market that it will bring about $125 but not holding my
breath.. NOBODY has any money down here this year...

Big show on Oct. 28th and it might have a chance there..
