Earlier this week I went mobile to saw some pine and cypress. The owner of the logs had this one larger cypress log that he saved for last. It had been dead for a while and the outside was falling apart. We finally got to it and man it was nice. It had a lot of colors and little black spots throughout. Sorry I forgot to take a picture. He could tell I was excited about the log. At the end of the day he asked if I wanted the stump.  8) He went down to the swamp with his tractor, dragged it out and loaded it onto my truck. I will post a picture of it when I start making bowl blanks. And the guy bought lunch both days. You cant beat that.

The old saying, "What goes around, comes around".   Treat your customers right and they will treat you right.  That also guarantees repeat customers.   :)  Nice catch with the stump.   smiley_thumbsup

I cut it twice and it's still too short
