Display Slabs

Post by benny350 »

Hey guys,

My retired uncle is a woodworker, a few months back I asked if he could make me some display slabs. He was pretty interested in the idea as it had never crossed his mind before... so on his last visit up to brissy he brought this haul with him. These are all out of Mulberry except for the red one which is Cedar and needless to say I was blown away with he created.

Thought Id share these and see if there is any interest, he enjoyed making them and after seeing my excitement for this batch he has plans for more and is sourcing any extra gnarly wood he can find!
