[Garry Smith]

I have just aquired a large (about 3 foot accross) and not so large cherry burl and also a nice solid maple burl.

I have no intentions of turning something like this unless I cut it up. The large cherry must be 700 or more pounds. I don't know anyone that can handle a chunk of this size, do you?

Uh Garry....They're all covered with snow! You can't turn that. I'll clean 'em up for you and send 'em right back.

No Bill these are legal. I have a friend thats a logger. When he finds something like this he brings to the shop and I buy it from him.

Thanks Bill,
I have no idea at this time what I will do with them except I know when the snow goes this spring they had better be out of my wifes garden area.

Great wood gloat Garry. Those ought to turn something pretty nice.

[Bob Noles]

Uh Gary...... have you give any thought to a bigger lathe?

Man.... what a haul!

[Gary Max]
