An amazing piece of wood and a simple shape to make the most of it.

There is some stunning colour in that wood, the top picture looks like ripples in the sand at the beach.

Hi Tim
Thanks for the comments, I get a few pieces from a friend who manages the grounds at a local uni not far from me, sadly a lot of the wood gets destined for fire wood
