Hollow Sycamore Logs Get Sliced Up
Recently, I set up three large hollow spalted sycamore logs to cut in the Lucas mill. They are all in the 48″ diameter range and most were cut 3″ thick. I see future tabletops (with glass) and wall decorations. Out of all the logs I had on the lot, these were drawing the most attention, so they got cut first.
A couple of them had a very cool curl shape where the tree tried to heal.
I set up all three in a row for faster cutting.
From this close-up you can see why I like spalted sycamore.
I had to put myself in the photo (sorry), so you could get an idea of the size of the pieces.

Good stuff.
But trees don’t heal, they seal!
