While visiting Comfort, TX we stopped at a sawmill and I picked out a 2" thick handsome piece of mesquite, gray and rough sawn. When machined in early August, the beautiful pink of this hard wood looked so fine.
I cut some half inch wide strips and made three nice wall crosses about 6" tall.

From a 7/16" thick piece, I made 36 crosses 7/16"x7/16"x2 13/16 tall.
And from another 7/16" thick piece came 6 beautiful wall crosses 5 1/2" tall and a small 1 3/4" cross.
