Ambrosia Maple

[Dan]

One of my coworkers gave me a chunk of maple that he cut down. Lucky me! It appears the ambrosia beetle called it home for some time. I didn't know what to do with it so I started by making these bookmark blanks. I'm not sure what design to cut but I like them with nothing cut. I'm hoping one of the chunks is large enough to make a bandsaw box.

I used to love making bowls with that on the lathe. I'm sure you can come up with some great projects with that beautiful wood.

That wood is rare and desirable, can't wait to see what you do with it.
