Default Squared Blocks!

As many of you know, I made the purchase of a lot of briar blocks from Rosewitha Anderson at the Chicago show. Being 30-40 years old, they had quite the buildup on them, hiding any grain or flaws.

I took about a dozen to the new disc sander and they cleaned up well and even though I see a few sand pits, they look pretty good. I even see some nice looking grain under there.
