Some things I made with Paul's wood

[Cloud of Sawdust Farms]

I've bought rather a lot of Paul Hinds's wood, with many thanks to @Mr. Peet and @Big Ry who've taken on the work of sorting through it, packing it, and shipping it out. I just thought I'd post a few pictures of what some of that wood has become -- zebrawood, quarter-sawn sycamore, purpleheart, sweet gum, and limba. I sold several of these at a festival yesterday, and I hope they will be played with and enjoyed for a long time.

I see what you did there ... zebra wood zebras; sycamore flecks for giraffe pattern, the black and white limba for the penguin, nice.

Excellent species selection!

Yeah, it's nice when that works out. I don't really seek out exotic woods for the sake of making particular items (except for quarter-sawn sycamore, which is perfect for mini giraffe puzzles). But when a cache of interestingly patterned woods just so happens to fall into my clutches, sometimes I get inspired. And thank you for providing the raw materials!

I'm just the middleman!
