There is some Verawood turning blanks available not far from where I live at a good price and I'm thinking of going to buy some. Read up on it and it is supposed to be very dense and oily somewhat like Lignum Vitae. I've read that it is hard to work with but is supposed to be excellent for turning. I'm guessing because of it being oily you would not finish with WOP or varnish...maybe Tung Oil?..or something like that. I would just like to know if anyone that has turned it would you recommend it or is it trouble. The color is supposed to be quite nice after exposed to air turning shades of green and turquois .....thanks
