I took a Fur Managers (Trappers) course some time ago and have been enjoying trapping very much since.
Maybe I will start a new thread and talk about it more over there.
No I don't keep all the fur, sometimes I will keep a pelt or two for my own personal use or for friends.

A fair bit of black walnut is dry, so I planed them and brought them to the GF's house.

Some charcuterie boards, hope they sell. The apple is 8" wide by 16" long. I cut the tree a couple years ago, not much was millable, I did save the good stuff, now it's dry, and not all that cracked!

Some crotch pieces left over from some other custom boards, I filled the cracks and bark inclusions with polyester resin and set them aside for future use. Someone messaged me wanting a small counter top for a laundry room, my left overs fit the bill.
Tung oil finish.

Thanks. It's a hobby. I've never sold anything.

I have respect for carvers. Making one off projects that can’t be duplicated by a machine takes skills I don’t possess.

I've been making a few table tops, this one is a sugar maple, it was tapered pretty good so I split it, flipped it and glued.
