Mike, that sweetgum stick is looking good! How hard do you find the smaller pieces to carve? I've tried larger logs of sweetgum and it's really hard wood. However, the grain is really nice.

The Branches are actually soft and easy to work. I don't have any trunk pieces to compare. It does not stain really well, but takes a good finish. That's my input thus far
