This is some of the hawthorn wood that I received several weeks ago. It had a lot of cracks and decay in it and didn’t yield me to what I would hoped it would for my pen making. These squares will go on for further drying before they can be used to make pens. I have more slab pieces drying and I’ll cut them into squares later in the Fall or Winter. Hoping I can get better quality heartwood out of some of the others. 🌳✍️
