Neat carvings by Mic

These two are out of Australian brown mallee burl but Mic has used just about everything here at our shop over the years- euc burl, cocobolo, bocote, etc.

Always amazing how he uses the natural movement in the wood to create some really unique pieces!

(Make sure to check out his booth at the design in wood exhibit at this years San Diego county fair!)

Lately these turning squares have been tough ones to keep in stock. Every time we get a new shipment from our sawmill they go right into pending orders.

We currently have about 200 sticks of 1.5 inch square x 24 inch long left from our latest shipment that arrived last week.

These are the last pieces in stock until we receive our next batch in about 4 weeks.

Get some while we have them!
