Aloha Everyone,
I like the look of this wood.It is curly sugi pine(japanese cedar) I am giving this one to my wood guy.
Very interesting colour and grain...!
Interestingly also, I was cutting/processing some round and square turning blanks from my local (non native) Macrocarpa I have, last night and I was working on a piece from the very butt root of this huge tree and the curls and colours of the wood, look amazingly identical.
The wood colours and grains just "explode" when they are coated with any liquid, and the glossier the finish is, the better it looks...!
Great job...!
Cheers
George
