Beautifull timber and not all woodturners are that tight allthough i agree most are what size is the boll

depends what you are intending to do ,very little of the root is good enough for gun stocks.If the trunk is good you need to keep as long a length as possible for planking Think there is more to be made from the main trunk rather than the root ball
