I'm calling it "The aliens have spalted."
I almost gave up on this piece 3 times this weekend. Things just kept not working out as I had hoped. I finally decided to just let go and see what would come out. It's 12" wide, spalted maple cut wet and left to dry on the lathe. There are steel ball bearings embedded in the top and along the base.
