Mesquite Bowl Blank M-1139
3.5" x 8.5" x 10"
8.4 lbs.

This is a beautiful and elongated half-log bowl blank of Texas Honey Mesquite. The overall color is the deep reddish brown of Mesquite heartwood surrounded by a thin band of yellow sapwood, with a complete and well-attached dark brown bark on the backside.   This blank is longer than it is wide.  You have a lot of options with this blank -- it would make a beautiful winged bowl for example, or perhaps an emergent bowl.  With the bark on the backside, you have the option of turning a conventional bowl or a "barky" natural-edge bowl. However, if you want a full bark edge on the "natural" rim, you will need to secure the bark with CA glue before and possibly during turning.

This is a classic half-log blank, split through the center of the log.  It does contain some pith in it and has a few cracks developing, despite being well-sealed.   Mesquite is fairly dimensionally stable, so the cracks tend not to develop much compared to other woods.  For any that are present, I recommend reinforcing them with CA glue prior to turning. 

This is a GREEN to partially air-dried bowl blank, meaning that it still retains a lot of its original moisture from when it was a living tree.  It has been well-sealed with Anchor Seal and is in the process of slowly drying.   It was heat-treated to kill off any hungry critters that may have been burrowing inside.   It was measured at 25% MC in May 2022. If you need a current moisture content, please message us and we'll check its status for you.


About the Tree

This Texas-grown Honey Mesquite tree was harvested in El Campo, Texas in March of 2022.  It was cut down by the city for reasons unknown to us, and we were happy to help save the tree from a burn pile.  It is possible that this tree was damaged by the Valentine's Day Freeze that Texas suffered in February 2021, which is when our state lost a lot of beautiful trees in an unusually deep and long freeze.

You can feel good about this American-grown hardwood being responsibly harvested and turned into beautiful art by YOU.  The tree was in healthy growing condition, with a minimum of bug damage and a nice healthy girth to the trunk.  There is some minor evidence of fire damage, perhaps from a campfire, near the base of the tree on one side.   It may have been in a fairly protected area such as a city park, as the Mesquite is less twisted and gnarly than trees grown in open pastures.  The grain looks generally long and straight and of excellent quality for green or dried turning.

Actual biltong that is not dried to the point of being jerky
If you are like me, you have ordered biltong as slabs and pre-sliced slabs from a bunch of companies promising the real deal. Too many of those companies trim the fat or dry things out so much that it might as well be American beef jerky with coriander added to the spice blend. This just arrived and we opened the bag not expecting anything different honestly. I am sitting here eating it and logging on to write a review because this is finally the real deal. I wouldn't say that it is wet, but it isn't American jerky level dry either and there is good fat on the pieces. It's pricey, and there was a dry piece or two and a bit of fat that hadn't been properly flavored, but it is the next best thing to a freshly sliced wet and fat slab. If you can afford this treat, don't waste your money on the less expensive stuff -this is what you are missing.

Privacy is what I was looking for and that’s what I got !!!
Color: Black, Size: Wheel-132''
Right now, I am in a shared room and it is perfect because I can block out and have some privacy for my clients. I purchased the six panel and realized it was too much so I was able to only set up three panels and it was just enough room for my clients to walk through to my side, but also have a sense of privacy. It’s not heavy at all very lightweight but durable at the same time. Because of the wheels, I’m able to easily glide it across the floor. This is a really good product. I didn’t need my husband to help me set it up though LOL

Totalmente Recomendable
Color: Black, Size: Wheel-132''
Es fácil de armar por qué las piezas vienen bien señalizadas y eso facilita armario , Es alto, el materia es resistente y el hierro es de negro opaco que hace que luzca bien, la tela resistente no pasa la luz, las ruedas giran muy bien y son angostos y es liviano de fácil de manipular, me encantó y estoy feliz de mi compra ! No me faltó ninguna pieza y ya eso es mucho también !!
