Mesquite Block M-1122
2.8" x 2.8" x 14.2"
4.3 lbs.

This is a pretty block of rough-sawn Texas Honey Mesquite.  The block is almost entirely Mesquite heartwood, a deep reddish-brown with a warm glow.  One face has sapwood along it, accounting for less than 5% of the block volume.  It will turn off entirely when bringing the block to round.

This is a GREEN to partially air-dried bowl blank, meaning that it still retains a lot of its original moisture from when it was a living tree.  It has been well-sealed with Anchor Seal and is in the process of slowly drying.   It was heat-treated to kill off any hungry critters that may have been burrowing inside.   It was measured at 35 to 40% MC in April, 2022. If you need a current moisture content, please message us and we'll check its status for you.

You'll see some tool lines on the surface of the block from milling.  These will turn or sand right off.  There are also some open cracks at the ends of the blank.  These will need to be secured with CA glue prior to turning.  Also a few open vugs and borer holes, which are characteristic of Mesquite.  I've taken lots of photos of this piece; scroll down below the first 3 to see all of them. 


About the Tree

This Texas-grown Honey Mesquite tree was harvested in El Campo, Texas in March of 2022.  It was cut down by the city for reasons unknown to us, and we were happy to help save the tree from a burn pile.  It is possible that this tree was damaged by the Valentine's Day Freeze that Texas suffered in February 2021, which is when our state lost a lot of beautiful trees in an unusually deep and long freeze.

You can feel good about this American-grown hardwood being responsibly harvested and turned into beautiful art by YOU.  The tree was in healthy growing condition, with a minimum of bug damage and a nice healthy girth to the trunk.  There is some minor evidence of fire damage, perhaps from a campfire, near the base of the tree on one side.   It may have been in a fairly protected area such as a city park, as the Mesquite is less twisted and gnarly than trees grown in open pastures.  The grain looks generally long and straight and of excellent quality for green or dried turning.

Surprisingly good
Size: Gravity, Color: Deep Space Grey
I bought a very old Lexus as a second backup car and as such, it doesn't have any of the amenities we are used to. This phone holder is surprisingly smartly designed. Every time I put my phone in it I'm impressed that it holds it in place.

Outstanding! 5 Stars for Mobility, Durability, Functionality and Ease of Use.
This little invention is outstanding! It holds phones of multiple sizes very securely in place without any bonding or sticky attachments that could damage your vehicle. Mobility is simple as it's easy to add and remove to any vehicle with air condition vents. Best of all, various size devices can be easily held in place with a quick squeeze of the side mounts and just as easily removable with a single press of a release button on the back side. The mount is also very strong and holds up to various temperatures. For example, in the summer it can become very hot in an enclosed vehicle and this mount holds up when other mounts tend to fail from over exposure to heat. The failure causes the joints or fittings to loosen, which will cause your device to slip from an intended position. Well, that is not a problem with this one. It has stood the test of time as I have used this mount for over a year in extreme environments. In the end, it appears that my family has come to like this product too. Ahem, my wife just took mine! So, I have returned to purchase another one for myself and two more for my daughters. Then I don't have to worry about my daughters taking mine either. Yes, I'm finally thinking ahead, so maybe you should think ahead and get additional copies for your family members. Either way, try one and you'll likely be back for more. It makes a great gift. I highly suggest this product to everyone who needs a mobile device mount for their vehicle.
