Recycle a Part from a Bed

A neighbor modified a headboard and gave me the cutoffs from the top and bottom.  I believe the wood is mahogany and I didn’t want to see it go to waste.  Its color and turning properties (very smooth) remind me of  African Mahogany .  This little project gave me some  more skew and end grain hollowing practice.  The finish is mineral oil and beeswax.  My neighbors now have a nice little sugar scoop as a keepsake of their bed!

Best regards,

Matt
