Jenga anyone?
 Here's some more just about through them now and started pressing and handling will put some pics up of those shortly.
 I think this could be the best selection of willow so far since I started absolutely beautiful, its been a pleasure cleaning them up and discovering these babies ready for making.

seema to be a lot of heartwood on a lot of these clefts. Personally i like this and always like a lovely straight piece of heartwood. When you post some pics can you post some supreme,gold and silver please mate.

Good to know that even with so many nice clefts, you only pick out the perfect 2 or 3. 8) I love the ones without heartwood, but some of those heartwood clefts look stunning!
