Belly split billet w/ ring already chased!

Thought this was cool. You guys doing this a long time probably seen it before.

Split this off the belly of a long osage and got these billets. You can see the matching knots and pins and the entire length is split with the perfect growth ring exposed  ;D

Somehow I doubt I'll ever get that lucky!  I must've been a dasterdly dude in my last life, cause I never EVER get so lucky as this, ...and I'm pretty sure I'm a nice enough guy this go around.  I reckon I'm just making up for inherited ill karma! >:D

Doobs you must be a reincarnated saint!  ;D ;D ;D
