    A BIG Stump

    Well, I've been rather busy the last few weekends and evenings working on a stump that I cut a tree off last year. While cutting it I ran into some barbed wire that I didn't see beforehand so I left it be for a time. You can see one of the wires hanging out in the above pic from earlier this...

    Burl Stump

    Here's the stump from a big Maple I cut down last year. After I got the tree itself down, as I was slicing off thick cut from the top of the stump, I "found" barbed wire in it. Saw the sparks and heard that distinctive metal-to-metal screeching noise. Well, that just made my day and I left it...

  7. Walnut log table

    Walnut log table

    This is a Walnut log from the butt end of the tree. I wasn't the one taking this down so I had to take what I could get. The majority of the sawable logs went to Bluthart and I hope he got some decent wood out of it.

    Stump workings (updated with pics this time)

    Well, yesterday the weather was nice and I decided to tackle another section of the big maple stump. It looked like this.... And then I sliced off a slab leaving this.... Of course, in order to get the saw into certain places, I had to cut off some of the root growth. Which netted me this...

I am planning to use this as a block to trim up stock once I level the ends...Thought I would try to make some riven boards maybe for a "bibble box" as seen on the woodwrights shop. 75 inch girth.. Woodwright's Shop. Peter and the Box. Master...

    Christmas Tree Stump, Turned.

    Figured I'd keep the tree stump for this years tree being that it was my son's first Christmas. Maybe to make an ornament or something. This is all I could come up with ... It was a sappy mess, but the skew turned it well ... roughing gouge, not so much. Not "finished" by any means, but...

    Stump Scraps

    I usually save most of the bigger pieces I cut out of a log when I'm making a stump table. No idea why, just seems like a waste to toss it out or burn it. After sitting around for a few months, I had an idea pop up so I gave it a try. I think in some locales these would be called "Objects d'Art"...
