    This is a root my customer, CJ, had for years. He wanted it to look more like a snake. Since the root was quite old and very, very dry I first soaked it in boiled linseed oil for a day, then let it dry again for a week. Then I had to drill and peg with dowel and wood glue to strengthen weak...

    A Live Oak root carving. The Indian and fire are live oak roots, the Indians legs are from bass wood, measures 12"X12"X8"deep. A real pain to carve, it's actually a burl root, I spent more time sharpening my palm gouges than actually carving this piece. It took 3-yrs to complete since I'd grow...

    Hi, I am fairly new to woodworking. I am looking for a type of wood that has medium to large root sizes, that grows more out than deep, and the roots once dried would be able to be worked with. I thought maybe cedar would be a good choice? Specifically, I am looking for possibly a cedar stump...

The tree was totally dried out, they cut off the crown and pulled the trunk and the roots out with a truck.This seemed like a great opportunity to get some free wood! The trunk was...

    I milled up a walnut root last month. I sold some to a local woodworker (photos below). I am trying to use it for dulcimer backs and sides, but it just won't stay flat as it dries. Would it work to cut 1" thick blanks, treat it with PEG, then resaw to 3/16" thick? Any other suggestions? It...

    My client wanted some black walnut surface roots removed from his lawn. I don't blame him; they were right on the surface. If you're in the Fort Worth/Dallas area, you can have the wood if you want it. It's 18"-48" long and 3"-12" in diameter. Some of it is crotch wood. It's free if someone...
