Primal Posted July 24, 2004 Report Share Posted July 24, 2004 Dude... that topic name is so... suggestive? Its the wood where the trunk forks. When that happens the grain gets all abnormal and you get the lovely figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Jabsco Posted July 27, 2004 Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 It also happens at branches and stuff. Its wherever there is a lot of strain on the wood, like if a tree is slanted over a river bank, then the side that is facing down is likley to have some crotch figure.
