Before & After

[rjR]

Just an example of what can be found in rescued wood. The wood was found in a fencing company dumpster that I have raiding rights to. 

I believe it is belinga, not positive though.

Our hoggish friend is 3/4" thick, 2-3/4" tall and 4-3/4" long. 

Cut on the scrollsaw-- It does not take very long to dull the blade cutting this wood. 

It has a light coat of walnut oil to bring out the grain.
