African Blackwood/Cocobolo combo..

[Timbo]

I love this combination of woods. I plan to make more variations. I like to let the coco sit for several weeks after I turn it until the bright color returns. This presents a problem because the color is very soluble in CA, and it tends to smudge onto the transition material. I could use darker pickard material, but then I'd lose the contrast. I need to find a way to seal it before I get to the CA finishing step. Comments always welcome.
