Many woodowrkers "see" a project inside a piece of wood. You don't
need a lathe for most projects, just an imagination. The root can be
cut into small boards, carved, or dried. It might be interesting to
see the grain pattern and color. Why not take a small piece, sand,
polish and finish it? I was amazed at the beauty of dogwood after it
was polished and finished.
