Scored Some Crepe Myrtle
« on: January 25, 2014, 08:57:42 pm »
I've been wanting to try some crepe myrtle for awhile now and I finally got a couple staves today. The pictures aren't the best, it was getting dark when I took them. I might even be able to get some more tomorrow. ;D My wood stash is slowly growing.

MJ, I've wondered about crepe myrtle, too. Had any experience with it?

Red Hill - This is the first time I've been able to get any.  So I haven't worked it yet.

I've got a crepe myrtle bow roughed out in the garage but that's as far as I've gotten. Look forward to seeing yours.
