    It's definitely wood... I think it's round wood. Also could be classified as smooth wood. What? You want the latin name? Smoothus Roundus! Take that Leo.

    Oh yeah... Nice looking HF, Steve.

    It's 24 feet across and 12 feet tall. Made from fiberglass finished with Antique Oil and laquer - lots and lots of laquer. A family of elves lives there.

    Nice work!

    If it was soft turning I would go with some type of cypress.

    Looks like Doug Fir to me. Crotch.

    Other than that, I can't even guess.
