You treat a wood in any way or chop down work and is it maybe after work some treatment?

I have no idea and I haven’t thought that through 🤣 These are gifts for friends. They own an olive grove and we usually buy 100lt + per year for soap and cooking. They did a big prune a few years ago and I grabbed some of the branches. Having said that I am open to exploring ideas 😎

First time working with olive wood. Grain direction and fibre orientation is all over the place. I have the basic blanks shaped now. Next task is to give them some personality 😄 #woodwork View quoted note →
