Wood Turning - Spalted Beech "What A Cracker"

In this wood turning project I turn a piece of English Beech. This was recovered from a skip where a Beech hedge had been removed for a new house. Beautiful grain and features in this wood and plenty of cracks!
Thanks for watching

I bought this piece from a shop in Wantage. It is now in a prominent position in my living room in Grand Cayman. It brings me a lot of pleasure to look at it. Thank you!

Hi Stephen - I'm really glad you like this amazing piece of Beech. I recovered this from a beech hedgerow that was being removed for a building project in Didcot. Very best wishes - Jim

Hi Jim Thanks for your message. I’m glad to have even more background information about your beautiful piece. I keep my eye out at the charity shop in Wantage ( King something?) when I’m visiting. . I was sorely tempted by the platters in April! I’ll be back next year looking, as my sister lives in Stanford in the Vale and we regularly visit Sainsburys opposite! I look forward to viewing more videos too. Kind regards
