Sounds great. Recently scored about 30' of cherry for turnings myself.
The butt log is a gnarly bugger, but I've already got a dozen pieces from
the second stick, with more still on the trailer.
I turned a bark-up bowl ~12" to about 1/4 to dry and finish in time for
Christmas for the provider of the log. Susan'll fill it with cookies prior
to delivery. That and a bottle of whatever ....
