This is turned from an old dry scrub (gambel) oak root ball. The top of the HF is actually the bottom of the root ball, the tree grew out of the bottom of the HF. So what I'm saying is it's oriented upside down. It's 7.5" tall, 8" diameter, 3/8" thick sides, a little thicker in the bottom. The wood was hard as a rock but the bark and voids held together pretty good. Just Danish Oil on it so far. The last pic shows kind of an interesting spiral cracking pattern on the bottom where the tree grew out of the root ball.
