Well I just started turning a purple heart blank that I cut down from a larger board. I got the board at Woodcraft and it was the most beautiful bright purple.
Now that I've roughed into a cylinder... It's a muddy brown color!!
I realize that natural wood is going to vary, but I was wondering if anything will change... Will it look better once I've sanded it?
Is there anything I can do for the color? If not, I might as well move on. I don't want to turn it, that's how ugly it is!!
Is there any way to tell if a purpleheart board will do that?
Advice appreciated.
