Chuck,
Have you ever thickness planed a piece of Sapele?

Is that a trick question, Lowell? :-)

To the best of my knowledge, I've never planed any sapele at all. I
have thickness planed cocobolo, yellowheart, purpleheart and various
other quilted and figured woods. It's not something I enjoy, but I do
it if I have to.

So what's sapele like?
