Mesquite Bowl Blank M-1165
2.8" x 6.5" x 8"
3 lbs.

This is a beautiful half-log bowl blank of Texas Honey Mesquite.  It's long and shallow, perfect for an elongate shallow bowl, perhaps a natural-edge winged bowl.  The overall color is the deep reddish brown of Mesquite heartwood surrounded by a thin band of yellow sapwood, with a complete and well-attached dark brown bark on the backside. 

This half-log bowl blank should be suitable for a bowl 6-8" in diameter and up to 2.5" deep.  With the bark on the backside, you have the option of turning a conventional bowl or a "barky" natural-edge bowl. However, if you want a full bark edge on the "natural" rim, you will need to secure the bark with CA glue before and possibly during turning.

This is a classic half-log blank, split through the center of the log. It does not appear to have any pith in it.  The grain is mostly straight, but it also has a bit of swirl around an encased juvenile branch.  There are also some burl buds near it, which will give pretty grain if they end up in the wall of your turning.

This is a GREEN to partially air-dried bowl blank, meaning that it still retains a lot of its original moisture from when it was a living tree.  It has been well-sealed with Anchor Seal and is in the process of slowly drying.   It was heat-treated to kill off any hungry critters that may have been burrowing inside.   It was measured at 20% MC in July 2022. If you need a current moisture content, please message us and we'll check its status for you.

About the Tree

This Texas-grown Honey Mesquite tree was harvested in El Campo, Texas in March of 2022.  It was cut down by the city for reasons unknown to us, and we were happy to help save the tree from a burn pile.  It is possible that this tree was damaged by the Valentine's Day Freeze that Texas suffered in February 2021, which is when our state lost a lot of beautiful trees in an unusually deep and long freeze.

You can feel good about this American-grown hardwood being responsibly harvested and turned into beautiful art by YOU.  The tree was in healthy growing condition, with a minimum of bug damage and a nice healthy girth to the trunk.  There is some minor evidence of fire damage, perhaps from a campfire, near the base of the tree on one side.   It may have been in a fairly protected area such as a city park, as the Mesquite is less twisted and gnarly than trees grown in open pastures.  The grain looks generally long and straight and of excellent quality for green or dried turning.

Works great with tennis balls
I have a pretty large yard, and this thrower is great for my little Jack Russel puppy. It even picks up ball without having to touch all the spit.

Good toy for dogs
This is a great toy! I do wish the handle was a little longer because I do not have a lot of upper body strength due to health issues. I can still throw with this further than I can without the launcher so my dogs really love it and get excited any time I get this out!
