@Az Turnings asked about some maple burl caps. I'm trying to talk him out of some DIW so let me know what you think.

As I mentioned these are very wet as they where just cut off a log/stump a couple weeks ago. Still have the bark on and I've yet to have the chance to sand down the chainsaw side so I understand If you are unable to commit because of not being able to see the figure.

Also, these are about 5-6" thick so not sure about shipping on the bigger ones.

Does #1 have any pins on the surface?

Went back out and did a little more sanding. From what I can see there are few pins. But the figure is kinda cool. Just not pinny.

Its almost looks like it's curly maple and it has rings like I cut it horizontally but I assure you I didn't.

I do have this burl which has a lot of pins but it's one of my favorites so I didn't post it. Haha. It's a wedge shape. About 24" long x 12"x12x at its widest points. It would have to be cut down for shipping.
