Hackberry Bowl Blank Hk-440 3" x 6" x 8" 3.3 lbs. This is an irregularly shaped quarter-log of slightly spalted Texas Hackberry. It has very pretty grain that is mostly straight to slightly curving. There are some eye-catching black line spalting fronts visible in the blank, gently cross-cutting the grain. The colors are a cool gray-brown, with darker brown to black spalting features. This block has only part of its bark -- some has fallen off. You can turn a barkless natural edge bowl from this blank. Hackberry is not a very hard wood and tends to be fibrous, so sharp tools are most effective. Spalted, Hackberry can be a beautiful wood and is well suited for decorative turnings. However, I recommend that you do not choose Hackberry for any projects requiring heavy use (such as utility bowls, knife handles, game calls, etc.) unless you have plans on some type of "hardening" procedure. I also recommend that you take light cuts with sharp tools to avoid the tear-out problems common with spalted woods. This blank does have some minor drying cracks that you will likely want to fill or reinforce with CA glue prior to 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 on end-grain surfaces with Anchor Seal and is in the process of slowly drying. It has been heat-treated to eliminate any gnawing critters. It was measured at ~25% MC in May 2022. If you need a current moisture content, please message us and we'll check its status for you. Please scroll through the photos to see all of them, if you wish -- there are more than the 3 that first display on the page. About the Tree This Texas-grown Hackberry tree was removed from a Brangus cattle ranch in Pattison, Texas in 2021. Hackberry is a common fenceline tree in Texas, and it tends to disrupt the fence as it grows. This particular tree was removed by the rancher when it interfered with his fenceline. It was saved from the rancher's burn pile and carefully sealed and dried. It was milled in early 2022, and it is now ready for a trip to your shop for the next stage in its life. We hope you will turn it into a cherished keepsake. |

Excellent shoes - good fit, nice look.
Excellent shoes - great value for money! Attractive and well built. Got several unsolicited compliments from co-workers. They are stiff at first and require a bit more of a break-in period than some other shoes I have purchased lately. I hope that is a sign of durability ...

Stylish and most importantly they are comfortable right out of the box, no breaking in required. This is my second pair, I now own both the black and brown colors to compliment almost any outfit. Worth the price!

Absolutely comfortable.
Size: 9, Color: Brown Multi
I am always on the lookout for a professional, but very comfortable shoe (education field with a lot of walking). These Florsheims fit the bill and make me wonder why I never bought these before. Something about them just didn't "look" comfortable to me but man was I wrong. These are easily among my most comfortable work shoes with the bonus of also looking more professional. I will say they have some heft to them, so if that's a problem for you these may not be right for you. As for me, they are right as rain.
I purchased the black and brown ones (with white souls) and they are at the top of my rotation now. I look forward to trying some more from Thai company.
