2 new woods for me.

[gandsande]

I got a few that I finished last night to show around

1st Is Ramon Stump. This is on a Jr Marshal with the holes filled with it's own dust and then Sealed with CA. about 4 coats to fully penetrate proper.

2nd Is a Pink Heart. on Executive. The Knott was no fun as it went all the way through although much smaller on the other side. This was a lot of CA and Coffee Grind to blend with what little was left of the knott.

I need to know if someone can tell me if Pink Heart is Just Pink Ivory? I can find nothing about Pink Heart so far. The Seller labeled it as Pink Heart and it has a lot more grain then the Pink Ivory's I have done.

Thank you to those of IAP that allowed me the pleasure of purchasing these blanks. while challenging to make the result hopefully will fetch me a nice dime. If not I'll keep them for my personal collection.

Greg.

Likely, it's Red Heart. I've never heard of Pink Heart. I could be wrong. Do you have any photos? That might be helpful. Look up Pink Heart and see if that looks right to you.

Some tulipwood also has a pinkish color and a lot of grain, very nice looking wood, and not very expensive either.

Without a picture it is impossible to provide any opinion... i've never heard of pink heart either. Pink ivory is a fine (finer then ebony for instance), dense and heavy wood with a candy pink color when cut - you can't mistake it.

I looks like Pink Ivory to me. The grain around the knot is throwing me off a bit, but I think thats what it is.

It was very hard. Thus I did suspected Pink Ivory but the Pink ivory I have normally used are less defined grain and tighter with more consistent pink color. That and the label on it was Pink Heart and he sold Pink Ivory separately. So I ask cause I cant find PINK Heart on any sites.

Thanks for the help
