A few months ago a neighbor gave me an Oak Burl. What’s a burl? “Burl wood is a type of wood used by artists to create sculptures and other items, such as clocks and even some forms of furniture. It is highly prized by artists because of its unique shapes and ring patterns. This wood is a type of fast growing, abnormal growth found on some trees. It grows because the tree has experienced some sort of environmental stress or damage, and it is often caused by either a fungal attack or an attack by insects.” (Source- HomeQuestionsAnswered.com) This is amazing wood. I have two boards done and working on a few more. I’m giving one of course, to the neighbor who gave me the burl. PM for details. These are SO unique
