Mesquite Block M-1122 2.8" x 2.8" x 14.2"Mesquite Block M 1122 2. 8" x 2. 8" x 14. 2" 4. 3 lbs. This is a pretty block of rough sawn Texas Honey Mesquite. The block is almost entirely Mesquite heartwood, a deep reddish brown with a warm glow. One face has sapwood along it, accounting for less than 5% of the block volume. It will turn off entirely when bringing the block to round. This is a GREEN to partially air dried bowl blank, meaning that it still retains a lot of its original moisture

Mesquite Block M-1122 2.8" x 2.8" x 14.2" 4.3 lbs. This is a pretty block of rough-sawn Texas Honey Mesquite. The block is almost entirely Mesquite heartwood, a deep reddish-brown with a warm glow. One face has sapwood along it, accounting for less than 5% of the block volume. It will turn off entirely when bringing the block to round. 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 35 to 40% MC in April, 2022. If you need a current moisture content, please message us and we'll check its status for you. You'll see some tool lines on the surface of the block from milling. These will turn or sand right off. There are also some open cracks at the ends of the blank. These will need to be secured with CA glue prior to turning. Also a few open vugs and borer holes, which are characteristic of Mesquite. I've taken lots of photos of this piece; scroll down below the first 3 to see all of them. 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. |

Great version, Love the packaging, Video quality is not perfect.
Really nice transfer considering the year this was made. I'm not sure if this could be cleaned up video signal wise any more than it is, because I'm not sure the source. But loved seeing the movie again, and it looks really good on my 138" projected image. Love the packaging.

4K Remaster Quality
I received the 4K / Blu-ray today 06/13 and l am very critical of video and audio quality. I'm not going to review the film but it is excellent with all the Monty Python influences and the iconic stars in the film! But just to assure everyone, the quality of these Criterion discs are perfect! I've never seen this film like this before, if you buy this one, you will not be sorry! The 4K disc also comes with a Blu-ray of the film. Just to mention, the George Harrison song at the end "Dream Away" is also outstanding! 5 Stars!

I'm a huge Time Bandits fan, and I wasn't disappointed
I saw this in the theater (I'm old) and a bunch of times on VHS, DVD and on TV.
But nothing beats the movie in super-clear 4K, great sound and CLOSED CAPTIONING.

Epic
When it comes to 80s fantasy movies, the words that often come to mind are creative, dark, weird, and original. Time Bandits is the epitome of great 80s fantasy, especially the dark and weird part. A huge inspiration for my personal writing, Time Bandits is an epic film with some of the most creative and original imagery you will ever see in your lifetime. I had to own this in 4K UHD; it's just too special a movie for me.
Spoiler: I still can't believe that scene with the exploding microwave.

Family friendly burglary that stands the test of time
"Mom! Dad! It's evil! Don't touch it!"
-Immediately proceed to touch it-
I bought this movie solely because of a clip showing this scene from the movie.
It makes absolutely less sense with context, and for that reason I happily award this 4k disc 5 out of 5 stars.
