    Wow!!! He is even narrating it!

    I think Mike is both getting credit and getting blamed for things he had nothing to do with!

    Mr. Ash seems to have it out for me lately!

    I think Roger said it well. Not sure I deserve either...

    Since you brought it up, in case you didn't see it earlier (I think I posted this before, not sure), here's a 27.5" flaming box elder roughout. It has been AnchorSealed and is drying...

    I've got an ambrosia maple pretty much the same size...roughed out and drying.
    I drink, therefore I am.

    Mike - that is one BEAUTIFUL piece of wood. Sorry if it appears that you are being picked on, you were just on my mind lately as I started cutting into another piece of Ambrosia that I got from you last year. Now, I am wondering how I can get some of that flaming box elder!

    That bowl of yours deserves it's own thread!!!

    Oh, I know you aren't "picking" on me. Just bullying... I'm kidding, of course. No worries. You certainly got my attention!

    Thought I already started a thread on it. I'll check. If I didn't, maybe I'll post a thread.

    Hey, just in case anyone is wondering, I'm no offended at all by this (or the other thread Mike started) thread. I actually found it funny. Carry on...

    Thanks, Michael. Yeah BE turns nicely. But the flames do eventually fade away...

    Hey, not offended. That is pretty wood yeah. I grew up in the cypress swamps. The stumps and canals are still there. Back home we had tidewater cypress--much larger and a rare site for cypress., Stumps you can park car on are left and a few lost logs.
