The Chocolate Log - Laburnum Crotch - Wood turning

A small piece of laburnum that gave me a big challenge (and broke my worm screw!).
I have a larger laburnum log that should be dry for the Summer. I can't wait to see the swirly chocolate colours.
Thanks for watching.

Laburnum has to be one of my favorites never seen a wormscrew snap before

[@RDMWoodturning]

First time with laburnum and I already want to find more of it. The wormscrew snapping was very unexpected, but thankfully no other harm done.

Beautiful piece. The grain is wonderful. All kinds of faces in there.
