Shrew Spiritwood
« on: November 13, 2013, 12:28:00 PM »
We just finished this Classic Hunter. The limb core is bamboo but the outside veneers are birch burl. When I first looked at it I begin to see figures in the wood. Mountainmen, owls, horses, mountain lions, all kinds of figures appeared. It's as if the wood is alive. Spirits in the wood?       :bigsmyl:

I have never seen veneers quite like that!

That's as pretty as any I've seen.  Congrats on another heirloom. P.S. check your email Ron, I sent you one a while back with a question.  Hope you got it.
