I will let you off the hook on the ID the one where milling is shag bark hickory(boards are hickory)..Back ground is shag hickory and the 2 behind that are walnut.

Looks good. I do a little woodworking and always wondered how good these these things worked. I always buy rough cut lumber, mostly green and dry it myself. Its a lot cheaper that way and I've enjoyed may a beverage watching it dry. Do you sticker this stuff for drying?

smokin, that would be cool. I see you have two stools do you get a helper or is that for a drinking buddy?

Here is one I made about 5 years ago from some rough cut rock maple and cherry. I wanted to add a couple of black walnut strips just for looks but couldn't find any that was cheap enough at the time. :blank: It shows some wear but it should outlive me.

Thanks, actually since then I scored some nice 5/4 stuff that has been sitting for the last three years just waiting for the right project to come along. If you look I used some to make one of the mallets.
