Hello!
So I have come across some blanks I bought last year and forgot about. I am trying to think what to do with them; I'm not a pro! Just happy to nake sawdust although since I bought these - the least sawdust the better. They are the largest blanks I have attempted to turn in my turning 'career'.
If anyone has ideas please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

That is some strange looking wood. What is it?
I do not think therefore I do not am.

The first three are an elm burr and the others are either oak or sweet chestnut burr. They have a wax coating on them which makes them look a bit odd aswell.

At 50cm that bottom one is way larger than I have ever turned. Perhaps a nice platter or clock.
The other bits looks as if they should be turned with some of that bark left on. Something I haver never done and I imagine needs a lot of care.
