What a beautiful piece of wood. I'd also like to know what kind of wood that is... Looks like bubinga, camphor, or mahogany. What ever it is, it's nice. The trouble I have with a piece like that is trying not to screw it up...

Incredible piece of wood. You did not give species or size. It would be a little heavy to hang as is, but should make something very special. You sure have a lot of viewers drooling.

Thanks guys, its pomelle sapelle. Its about 8 x 11 or so and about 1.75 thick. One of those woods that moves in the light so I took advantage of the hot sun, and tried to get a couple good pics. :D

Wow, what a beautiful piece of wood. I share David's feeling, afraid I'd screw it up.

That is a beauty. I have no clue what I would do with it other than hang it somewhere.

Larry, I agree with Steve. Put a hanger on it and put it on the wall.

That is one beautiful chunk of wood Larry. Real nice gloat.
Can't wait to see what it turns into...
