What Wood is This? Part 2
A friend worked at the airport and gave this to me.
It was confiscated by customs from a South American flight. Has been ambiently air dried over time. Very hard, very heavy. I can barely make a pin head sized hole by pushing a center push into it with my palm. The piece 41" x 6" x 1-5/8" weighs 13.5lbs. http://www.mikedrums.com/mysterywood1.jpg http://www.mikedrums.com/mysterywood2.jpg Yes, that reddish/maroon tint is accurate.
