Burl gloat!!!

[flyrod444]

I receive a call today from a man that works with my brother about the possibility of making two bowls for him in exchange for this burl he had. This is a picture of the little burl. I should get more than 12 bowls from it. His estimate is that it weighs in around 600 pounds. It looks just like the oak burl I had last year. He is going to even bring it to my shop.

Burl? That ain't no burl, that there is at least 6 months worth of shop time just figgerin' out what to do with it and how to cut it. WOW! Nice score. Do not, I repeat, DO NOT allow Robert Arrowood to see this.:crossedlips: The resultant coma:tinysmile_tongue_t: and jabbering uncontrollably:banana::kermit::3dblob3::XXfridge: :tinysmile_cry_t: :roll: :BangHead: into the air would be horrendous to say the least.
