So we were having a good ole time talking about some burly exotic wood I offered for sale, and somehow the topic turned to my mystery shed. Of course, pictures are required! So instead of simply showing my shed, I thought it might be fun to exchange pictures of either the most exotic / interesting (or otherwise) piece of wood you have, or a picture of your wood storage or shed.

Who knows, this could be fun - or turn out like me being Geraldo Rivera at Al Capone’s vault!

and now for some suspenseful waiting! :popcorn::popcorn:

(And yes, I will post a picture of my shed and contents! Ha!)

Alright, alright!
So here’s what WAS in that shed for a while... drum roll

My best Burl hands down is this monster piece of Afzelia Burl I picked up from Gilmer Wood 6 or 7 years ago. I bought two of these, cut one up for bangles and didn’t have the heart to cut on this one. Wow! this thing is amazing.

I'll take it! :itsadeal:
 
Shed - what shed? Don't got no stinking wood shed! Wait! Come to think about it - I do! Abandoned playhouse that I built for my daughter. I think she only played in it one time - I didn't put A/C in it! So mama uses it for antiques storage and I am allowed to put my mower and a few pieces of mahogany, some cherry, and my bomb in it! Anyways - not a burl, but two pairs of knife scales in end grain black and white ebony I think are rather special!
