Never heard of this wood before Paul Porter sent it to me in a blank exchange on another BB. Sure is pretty stuff! Thanks Paul! It's a dream to turn but I got a little to thin! Nothing some CA and coffee grinds couldn't fix!:D Got this one under an 1/8th" It still needs to cure and be buffed. Honest critic please. Still working on the form thing. 8"sx5"s

Form looks very good to me. Is this green or dry wood? It's beautiful in any case.
