Round 10: I posted finding this wood after a typhoon a few years back. Pic below of what it looked like originally so you can see why I ended up with this weird shape once cleaned up. Seems to be a root ball. This is certainly the same species of wood that I had available in the “round 1” post I made. Not sure what it is, but it is clearly the same species. It is a soft wood that is probably a cypress species. Smells nice. This piece has LOADS of figure due to the circular growth of the root ball I found. Unfortunately, there are stones in the wood here and there. I’m not sure if it will be safe for turning. Letting it go for 30$ plus shipping. I’d list the size, but I have no idea how to measure it. Had one bigger crack I sealed with CA glue along with several smaller ones on some of the edges. Sealed with polyurethane in pics. If I don’t see some of those ‘eye candy’ responses below this piece, time to get your eyes checked!

I didn't want to be greedy since i already claimed a piece, but if nobody is interested in this one you can throw it in a new box for me lol. I'm sure i wouldn't hate even more pistache or anything else you can get in there.
