Colin PurringtonFinally, here's another new-to-me gall that I've very, very tentatively ID'd as something made by Ophiomyia tiliae, a fly in the Agromyzidae. If I get a correction on iNaturalist I'll update this post. Possibly not even a gall! 5/5 #GallWeek2025 #gall #galls #inaturalist #mites #flies #diptera #tilia #basswood
StarFlowerStudioNYAmerican Linden or Basswood (Tilia americana) in bloom. I knew it was nearby before I saw the tree. An amazing summer fragrance.

A wee 'Hairy Hippie'.
Normally I can't get it to look right using the flat of the wood as a facing. I normally use the edge of the block. But this one worked. Right? Right???
From following @douglinker on his YouTube video.
A new little wood carving. I posted him last time (bare), but this time he has a wax finish.
PeteI've just bought a large bucket of #SodiumBicarbonate to hopefully draw out the #smoke #odour from a #guitar I got from #eBay.
I don't know whether it's surface level and could also be address by #sanding. The body is #wooden #basswood and untreated. But I can't sand the neck so much, especially not the rosewood fretboard.
I was thinking of taking the guitar to pieces and putting them in a tub of baking soda, like a lucky dip, rather than just sprinkling.
Anyone have any success with this?

This little fella is basswood and finished with teak oil. Why teak oil? It was the closest thing to hand. So why not? 😄
