Look what showed up at my house.

[Robert Arrowood]

Came home from work today and this was in my yard.Didn't even have to touch it YET.Some of it is rough but it's free.Rough cut white oak and one piece of cherry 11x5x12.Now What:gar-La;.Well I tried to upload picks but I don't think it worked:help::dontknow:.

Robert you must have some secret admirer somewhere. Free wood delivered :icon_thum:icon_thum:icon_thum
Unfortunately that Cherry burl is no good, and will bring vast misfortune upon your shop. You must send it to me for proper disposal while you still can. I have the powers to deal with it, and render it into a harmless pile of dust.

Nice score, I see some box tops, or platters in the Cherry burl and the Oak should be good for anything else made of wood :icon_thum

[nelsone]

Nice score Robert! Glad to see you have a ferocious watch cat guarding that haul from Dave!

 

[Mike Davis]

WOW! Robert, what a score!

Somebody really likes you!

That burl looks like several hundred dollars worth. I can't wait to see what you make with it.

Nice Cat - good for snaking and mousing. We have strays around often - doesn;t help much that my daughter feeds them. But at least they leave full only to show up another day for another hand out :gar-La;

[DaveO]

Nothing yet. I am still determining the best way to cut it up so I can get some to Tom and end up with the most usuable stock. Plus it is getting use to my shop air...yeah, that's it :roll::roll:
