Neat
I have never seen curly white oak before. I guess the word I am looking for is Stupendous
As of this time I am not teaching vets to turn. Also please do not send any items to me without prior notification. Thank You Everyone.
It is always the right time, to do the right thing.

Thank you everyone for your kind words; Arlin I was lucky to find this curly White Oak. Mel because I wanted to use these for food I used Tung Oil, they do dull a bit after time but you can just wipe on more and they come back to a shine.

I think that's some of the prettiest white oak I've seen. I'm used to quartersawn, not curly.
Your turnings aren't bad either.

Thank you Rodney Yes it is some very nice White Oak, and it's very hard to turn w/ out a catch happening, I have a few pieces in reserve for a later project.
