Cored this sucker out before work the other day. Just need a few more minutes in the shop to finish it.

Not often I get a chance to work on something this size. Keeps the nerves raw for shore!

It was the centerpiece in a large obsidian order I just finished. Feels good to get it done and ready to ship.

Nice stove too, is that a round oak?   I just picked one up the other day, I can't wait to get it piped up in my shop so I can stay warm out there this winter!
