BBL Report post Posted December 9, 2019 This is the most recent wood I’ve been using... wild cherry. It soaks up the pitch very well and it’s very hard/durable even when dead. I also really like how it inks. Gets some really neat patterns. It took me quite a while to even determine that it was wild cherry. The log looks very close to honey locust or red oak even. But at the age it is, it’s hard to tell. I had to split 1 of the logs to find out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maxdaddy Report post Posted December 11, 2019 That cherry wood bottom looks pretty cool. Very random coloring and grain. Your corset mug design looks like it would be a pain to stitch but definitely gets a very feminine 'curve' due to the shapes of the panels. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
