woodeye Have you made the 3d reindeer? Holler if you want the pattern. I haven't made any intarsia items from JGR's collection of patterns yet. The Cowboy boots that I made for june for the Chicken Show were the closest thing I have done to being intarsia. I want to try intarsia patterns someday, and I will keep yours in mind, Thanks, hmoosek...

macmex, Here is just one example of the grain that Boxelder heartwood lumber is capable of having. You can do an online search for Boxelder lumber and see lots of images of how it could possibly look. It's very interesting wood, and according to the information I have seen online it is a member of the maple family of trees. It is a hardwood, but is softer than walnut and hackberry, but twice as hard as red cedar. I haven't priced it for quite some time but back when I did it was very, very expensive. I'm sure the price has not dropped and never will.

Who knew? All my life I thought box elders were worthless. That was beautiful wood!
