Howdy folks, Well actually I cut this yesterday before the new saw broke down but I took the pics this morning anyway. Just a few pics of some more Texas wood.....Mel Just kind of typical wood with golden mossy inclusions. Not much grain at all showing. Now this one I love. No sun this morning so the pics really don''t show all the color on this shrinkwood but this one has abut everything, including some cool almost plume like structures. Couple closer shots: Here's one more closeup shot that shows the weird tree like formation on the left part of the slab. The little dots in rows are some of the original vascular formation in the original wood grain. Unlike a lot of petrified wood that retains much of it's original character, this shrinkwood seems to have been really decomposed and altered from the original wood specimen....Mel
