Spalted poplar wood - wood versus carver????

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


A conundrum in the carving room! Plant against human! Who will win???Had this piece of spalted poplar found in my wood box. To burn or not to burn? To carve or not to carve?
Notice that one side has been left as the wood came out of the forest and the other side was mutilated by a power carver. Is co-existence the final result? Hope so.Enjoy.The confused Bootman!
