I love woodworking....sooooo UPVOTE.

But you may want to flesh the photo out a little for us..... to make it a steemit worthy post. After all, it is only the text that gets written onto the blockchain. Photos are only hosted(by steemit or otherwise) and can be lost. The text cannot! So: What's special about this wood? Why did you buy it? For what type of projects? Is it easy or difficult to work with? Why is it called Crotch Walnut? What do you love about it? Stuff likesssss that!

I see you are not BRAAAAND NEW... but here is my normal spiel for newbies, just in case...

Greetings and welcome to Steemit!

I have a few tips for you:

  • find a community. Maybe join the @minnowsupport project.

  • don't plan to get rich. If you come for money, it will probably be a struggle.

  • it will still be a struggle when you are new.... for 2 or 3 months. You need to go meet people when you find their post that you like, and comment what it meant to you.

  • only Post original work. Many new Steemians get into trouble when they copy and paste things from Google or from the internet, AND IT IS NOT their photo, writing or work. IF you can't post your own things, better not post. If you cross-post on instagram/pintrest/etc you need to reference links for the other Posts.... Otherwise @cheetah will get suspicious!

  • comment and make friends, but don't ask "Follow me" or "please Upvote me" Maybe after you have become friends... maybe. But never as your first, second or third comment to them. Never!

  • have fun!

I am a community volunteer. I try to stop SPAM and trash and things that hurt Steemit. IF you see anything like that, please feel free to let me know, I will look into it!
Thx!

Thanks for all the great advice! If you were reading the #woodwoking tag regularly, you might have read my post about why it is called crotch walnut. You might also have seen that I began the Daily Woodgrain Pic posts just a few weeks ago in the hopes it would catch on with my fellow woodworkers and that they would make similar posts. I like to let the wood speak for itself.

Gorgeous

Glad you like it!
