Don't throw away that cutoff with the ugly knot
Furnished content. (from Lumberjocks.com)
I had this cut-off from a board of maple that had an ugly knot that didn't go all the way through the board. The other side had a lot of character so I decided to make an Andy style art box and use it. The plan was to mount the medallion with the knot down and be careful not to sand down to the knot when sculpting the box. Then I got the bright idea of mounting the knot side up and sand down through the knot, removing most of it. This box was the result. The pattern around the knot was way more interesting than the other side of the cut-off with much more chatoyance.So be careful with that piece of wood with the ugly knot. The box is sepele with all other parts maple.

Giant maple burl project
Furnished content. (from Lumberjocks.com)
This is a project that I began in the winter of 2005. The big leaf Maple grew in my yard and is estimated to be 250 to 350 years old. The poor health of the tree was evident as it was rotting and dropping dangerous branches. I decided to remove it but I wanted to save the wood. After hand digging around the roots on the inside of the hollow tree I was able to cut it off and wedge it up enough to get chains around it and lift it out with a backhoe. It took seven years of work to get it to where it is and I've been maintaining it from 2012 until now.
