Outstanding work! I'm also curious how you keep the wood from splitting as it dries. ?? Inspirational stuff!

I don't know if we have any juniper around here but we have a 5500 acre ranch full of manzanita. A lot of it is huge and twisted like your raw piece. If I had your talent I'd try doing it with the manzo. What do you do to keep it from splitting after it ages some? Beautiful work!

Thanks PB,

I understand that there are many varieties of manzanita, and I have seen some beautiful things made from the kind in your area. The manzanita where I live are only small shrub like bushes.

Juniper is difficult to work with but one nice characteristic it has is that it does not check (split) much as it dries. I only work with dry seasoned wood.

Thanks for your comments,

Ron
