We have gone to Maui every winter for the last 10 years or so. We have gotten to know a real nice guy that lives in makawao who is a very talented wood sculptor. He saves small figured cutoffs of Koa, mango, and a bunch of other woods for me.. I send them to myself in Iowa in usps flat rate boxes. They are good for pens and other small turned items. Our friend also took us on a hike literally into the jungle on the north side of the island to see a guy named Jitendra that apparently lived under some tarps who made his living salvaging dead and downed koa.. he had a ton of wood under tarps, all sorts of species. I even got a small piece of ebony from him.. quite an adventure
