Pecan vase by Jim ODonnell - CLICK TO ENLARGE

Pecan vase by Jim O'Donnell


10 inch Buggy pecan vase.  The log came from a pecan grove in South Central Georgia at Christmas time a few years ago.  I noticed the look of drill holes within the log a few months later.  When I realized that it was infested, I let the beetles chew for awhile.  After fumigating the log 3 times, all beetles ware killed.  The log was then turned and the holes (packed hard with sawdust-type material) were painstakingly cleaned out with dental instruments.
