Hmmm, I'd like trying to make one from a scrap of osage.  Like yours, I'd love to see one side sapwood and the other heartwood. 

Inspirational piece, brother!

Go ahead, it's quite a quick thing. I woke up early saturday, and by the time the family was up, it was done.

Real nice piece!  I have to get busy and finish a spoon from a piece of home grown cherry that checked out on me - not sure the expiry is food safe so it will be a wall hanger.  Beeswax 1:3,or4 to flaxseed oil makes a food safe finish for working spoons.  Probably work well, hand rubbed into bows as well.

Used to be able to carve 'em just by looking at 'em when I was Sgt Major in Special Forces, but now I have to use carving  knives and sandpaper, and scrapers >:D >:D >:D )-w( )P(

Nice spoon, I really like the heart sap contrast.  Elm sure is pretty wood.
