    Nobody's given you a "congrats" for the gloat on getting the burl. That's one spectacular piece of wood. Whatever you make from it will be a showpiece, for sure.

    It doesn't look big enough for a gunstock, but you could get some really spectacular pistol grips out of it. And save scraps for pen blanks. Bowls, small turnings, actually anything would be great. Nice haul.

    My vote would be for table. Just too nice to make toothpicks out of it. Nice gloat too.
