Thanks guys and norfolk yeah it's oak but not sure if its red oak or sessile and its was cut about 12 months ago n quite nice 2 carve only problem is 90 ./. Of the wood I can get my hands on has shake so a few cracks but keep it oiled and its not 2 bad.and good to practice with as its not cost much : )

Thanks guys and that's a good 1 norfolkngood I'm not sure on that the reason I've put it in the water is because the base was splitting quite badly as it dryed out. Its gt shake so not expecting it to last 4 ever any way. The wood hasn't gt any fungi ( yet) and fungi cant attact in water due to the lack of oxegen?ive also treated it with linseed oil
