Bill, I hope you don't mind, but I have to publicly brag on this gift :-D .

Y'all, Bill sent me this made from some of that spalted soft maple I sent him a while back. Absolutely stunning work! :-D

I'll have to go buy some really good bourbon for a home for the stopper now. :-D

Thanks Bill :)

You are welcome Gene. The hard part was making the wood as nice as it is, I didn't do that. All I did was make it round.

I didn't know you could use a stopper on good bourbon, once it is open it is history. :shock:

Enjoy both in good health.

Bill
