This is made out of manzanita that I got from @rockb. It's 5" x 6.5"(not including the finial). Epoxy isn't my favorite thing to turn, especially after it's cured for a few weeks, but I do like the results.

Beautiful, the epoxy color and wood compliment one another. The profile is elegant, a favorite!

Spectacular piece! The resin work is fantastic with color and swirls that pair great with the wood. Love the live edge finial!

Thank you! I used Pourable Plastic for this and 3 different cheapo pearlescent powders I got from Amazon. Gold, orange and red. The mold was a 1 gallon bucket. :)

The manzanita I am remembering was a solid chunk. Does this mean you have only a pile of shavings or did you reconfigure it to get more uses out of this beauty?

This was a very holy piece of manzanita with rocks inside so unfortunately the rest of it got turned into shavings.
