Hi All,

Got some Poplar Burl from forum member Buga (Dario) from Croatia. Great guy to deal with.

I stabilised a piece last week and today I wanted to see what this stuff looks like when turned. I am very happy with the results.
I will get this turned into a pen one day.

Extreme potential, from that shape it was hard to imagine getting a blank at all. The video was clear and informative.

My mate harvested a tree of this timber from a street tree, it too was exciting.

Peter.
