Title: Looking for Project Ideas
Post by: kenreich on July 31, 2017, 09:50:31 am
While camping in CO I came upon a spruce tree that had broken off and left a large splinter of trunk sticking up in the air.  It looked very interesting and made me think it could be the source for some kind of project.  So I cut it off and brought it home.  The section is 36" tall, the main section is 24" tall by 10 inches wide and about 2 1/2" to 3" thick.

My question is:  if you had this chunk of spruce, what would you do with it??  I'm rolling some things around in my head, but I know there are some "outside the box" creative thinkers here that have some great ideas.  So let me know what you think.

That is a very interesting piece of tree you have there.  It kinda looks like the very tip of a very tall mountain.  Wonder if you designed a properly sized set of climbers how it would go if you put them on the edge as if they were struggling to climb that mountain?  Just a thought.

Interesting thought!  That's the kind of ideas I'm looking for.  I'm anxious to see what others think.  Thanks for the idea.
