Hickory shavings are great for smoking meat. Ipe is a good potting soiled amendment to increase moisture retention. Oak is great to add to tomato beds and pepper pots, it acidifies the soiled as it decays.

Vine maple shavings make some mean smoked salmon. 
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso

Always have a zip-loc in My pack of Osage shaving for starter. Also have a bag of Yew shavings I'm going add from My current project. Bob

Friends and neighbours lucky enough to have fires at home take all mine. I just box them up and they go quicker than I can make them.

Burn um in the camp fire I always have going. Save a few for my fire starting kit but that don't take many. ;) :)
