As you can see the beautiful salmon color on the end cuts of the log, you'll notice a small 1" orange bullseye there is a small amount of spot rot around this area otherwise totally solid as is the smaller end with the exception of a 8" split towards the middle.  This piece is the butt cut so its the premium piece, a few knots on one side, but I would say its over 50% clear.  Could be milled, slabed, carved or vaneered?  A log of this quality doesn't present itself everyday.  Winner will be responsible to set up and pay for all shipping costs.  $1000 due to paypal within 4 days, remainder due upon pickup.     Thanks for looking Place a Bid!
