These trunk crotch vertical slices were the pith of logs I cut up for bowl blanks long ago. I discovered them many months later, on the ground under the shade tree I use for relief from the sun while prepping blanks. These are normal throwaway pieces. But, when I picked them up I saw potential. So, I cleaned, sanded and finished on one side of each, and now have finally mounted them on my office wall. The woods are walnut and oak, and I refer to them as my crotches on the wall.
