Had a brain wave remembered a small patch of these quick pic on the kitchen table of IMHO very desirable Yellow Box Burl blanks, why cause of the sapwood in these as well, the colour is lighter and yellowish as I find in all burl hard to get true colour. I agree it can be neat to work with but in old dry log form arm strengthening and knuckle busting. All the best.

Kind regards Peter.
