Makes me want to cut it down and make a bunch of reel seats for fly rods out of it ;D Trees that have a ton of burling like that have a great grain pattern inside them.

As long as the tree is healthy I prefer to see it as is, opposed to any other options.   :P

My first impression of the tree is that it looked like demon heads attempting to break free from the inside of the tree.
