I take a small White Oak Root Ball and turn it into a hollow form, with the help of some epoxy. I mixed Trans Tint Dye stain in with my epoxy resin to get the color I wanted. If held to the light it is somewhat translucent. I use Easy Wood Tools on the majority of this turn. I have found that a regular gouge does not like to cut epoxy as well as the carbide tools do.
