Want some Maple?

October 21, 2022

Mel Genge had an old Manitoba Maple tree threatening to do damage to his house in the next big wind storm. With the decision made to remove it a crew came yesterday and skilfully climbed, cut and chipped their way to a large stump with a hollow center. Mel is welcoming any turners who might be interested in a piece to contact him. There are not many really large pieces but lots of red and burl to look at.

Give Mel a call at (306) 653-2297
