Title: Eucalyptus burl
Post by: boatpaddle on January 14, 2021, 04:10:25 PM
Spoke to Austy recently about what flavor wood, my next adjustable trumpet would be made from...

I have a piece of curly Claro walnut, that I mentioned to Austy...

He ask me, would I consider a piece of eucalyptus burl ???

He was saving this piece of wood for himself, but offered it to me out of the huge kind heart, he has...

I'm grateful & appreciate his friendship...

Austy, your a fine man...THANK YOU !!(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210114/e1d254a3c6ebd6e93493deeee70b8c1a.jpg)

Can you taste eucalyptus when you run it?  Just curious if the menthol like properties and taste are detectable. Nice looking caller.
