Hand Picked 23 cm/9-in Spalted Maple Cottage Mill® (#6/6) with Crushgrind®

One of six (#6) from the Spalted Maple branch so amazing that I posted the branch on my Instagram page. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DdzX1OxJQoX/?stkn=bnV2MnFjaXR4ZXgw This one is almost all cream with some beautifully light streaks of tan up the length, plus a cute little void in the sapwood to reveal the heartwood at the base. Maple sometimes goes through a "spalting" process where a mould gets under the bark and slowly transforms the colour and density into a cream and black, and lightweight. There's only one in the world like this one. All my mills have an adjustable ceramic Crushgrind® mechanism, with a 25 year guarantee.
