Never saw that but Charlie did some weird things.
When Dave died there was a box of turned Mur-eel bodies, un-finished in the basement of the old store. They were very old as Dave didn't turn so these were Charlie's and he died in 72. Anyway, some were turned out of red cedar and I was told that Charlie took down and old cedar fence and turned them out of the posts.
