Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder... that's why SWMBOs insist on the MBO... just to remind us Adonises of the limited beholders out there.
I was mesmerised by the pattern/look of the wood (log), but it is definitely the worst media I have ever worked with... I'd rather have a handful of rattlesnakes... Hmm, maybe a good topic for the next puzzle... Pottzy, suppress those tears of joy.
There was enough wood there to make around 11 puzzle (with careful layout), however, got the three workables and enough of that cantankerous, mainly spalted left over to bugger up two more... three if I ignored directional grain, which I always buggered up anyway.
If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
