After reading thread about african padauk, now, I wonder how to work
with african mahogany.

Glue, dust, etc... ?

Standard glue. Dust is not bad at all. It machines great. You can find
some boards with a beautiful ribbon pattern. The last project I built came
from wonderful boards that were wide, flat, and reasonably priced (about
$5/bf here).

I'd recommend finishes that contain some oil (e.g., oil with a shellac
overcoat, or an oil-varnish mix).
