Harvesting a Tulip Wood Burl with the Burl Hunter.

[@davidmorgan7522]

My imagination is running wild! I've never seen a tulip tree that big. I turn tulip roots and they are beautiful. The character in the wood is amazing and no two are alike. I see the same colors in that burl and whatever it is used for will be absolutely beautiful! Take care, Dave

Good response. I would love to do a project with this burl also but one guy purchased the whole thing and I will not be able to even see the eyes and lace. But that is what I do... Sell burl. :)

A very beautiful table.

[@davidsettles3126]

I would turn my first ever bowl.I had just put together my lathe this morning and am looking forward to lots of fun with it .

[@cortlandhunt4721]

The wood slabbed out would make a beautiful table. Or slabbed in 4-5” thick would make beautiful bowl blanks.

Nice intro!

[@ArtisticEpoxy]

Thank you, sir!

[@MrScaldedmonkey]

Where to start on what you can make. An awesome hollow form or huge platter come to mind.

[@ArtisticEpoxy]

I would love to see a big platter!

[@MrScaldedmonkey]

A 24 inch blank big enough?

[@eugeneenslow8563]

Counter and table tops 👌

So that is a tulip magnolia? Love those lines on the left side!

[@ArtisticEpoxy]

Yes it is in the Magnolia fam.

[@valeriehenschel1590]

Thanks! Just wanted to make sure it was not “ tulip wood”, since I had never heard of tulip wood growing on the west coast.

[@ArtisticEpoxy]

@@valeriehenschel1590 It is a first for me in the 15 years I have been doing this.

[@valeriehenschel1590]

We have quite a few landscape planted tulip magnolias in Western Washington, but the age and size of the stump you harvested is quite impressive. I was just given some magnolia that grew locally and am looking forward to turning it.

[@GeorgeWHaydukeIII6396]

I throw my chainsaw around when I'm finished with it too.

[@robertgarza600]

I would cut out some blocks, stabilize them and make knife handles. I would also turn a few cups and maybe some rolling pins.

[@brentromine4245]

Pool cues, definitely pool cues

[@bcridlin4658]

I would make a beautiful table, with some acrylic coloring

[@michaelalguire9896]

who got that burl

[@ArtisticEpoxy]

Sorry, he would not let me tell.

[@SilverBack.]

I would turn large fruit bowls or pens to donate to the local church to sell and raise funds

[@genarogomez9535]

Vases!

[@ArtisticEpoxy]

Awesome!

[@corallewis7500]
