    Very nice piece. I am needing to finish one but didn't have any luck with keeping the bark on. This is sweet!

    Thanks everyone, this came off a dead limb I had to cut off a very large boxelder that is in my Mom's back yard. It is around 44"+ thru at the base of this tree. and every limb that has been cut off it has this color in it. Jack
