Do you ever get that problem when you're turning something and it just doesn't work out the way you planned it, so you turn a bit more and accept that you'll get the shape right, but it'll just have to be smaller. Well, this advert on e-bay suggests that the best thing to do is to just keep going. Reduce it all to shavings and sell the shavings.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yew-Wood-Chippings-per-5-grams-Wicca-Witchcraft-Voodoo-Ritual-Ingredient-/310702411698?pt=UK_Metaphysical_New_Age&hash=item48574e8fb2
With yew at a density of about 18kg per cubic foot, you'd get 3.600 of these portions, and at £1.95 per 5gm portion, that's a tad over £7,000 per cube. Can't be bad!
Les....who's just off out to the workshop to make some shavings!

Education is important, but wood turning is importanter.
