    I do grow mesquite trees, which have excellent hard wood.
    Only I don't have pictures.
    I also have several bonsai in training.

    I don't have pictures of those either.

    The bonsai don't look impressive until they are in their containers and are being maintained in their intended form, or at least have all the sacrifice branches pruned off. It can take years and years to get to that point, and I've only so far developed trunks and first few main branches on my trees.

    So there's my wooden hobbies.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    Come down to my neck of the woods. You can't spit without hitting a mesquite tree.
