Maple Trough
I salvaged this piece of maple from a big leafed maple tree I saw cut and lying by the side of the road. I could tell it had some great spalting going on, but as I progressed I realized that it had very pronounced ring shake. The inner heartwood broke loose from the sapwood and left me no choice but to make an open ended half-pipe shape. The exterior is sanded to show the grain pattern and color. Finished with food grade raw linseed oil.
