I have a nice big slab of gorgeous wood, that I am pretty sure I have identified as antique yellow pine. The thing is that it looks and smells like fatwood. It is drenched with resin and I can light it with a match. The dark grain-lines are translucent and the smell of it when it is cut, lights the house, or shop up. The wood is also quite hard. You can barely leave a fingernail mark in it, well at least I have trouble leaving a mark, some folks may not be able to leafe a scratch at all. Others may be able to dig out a chunk. Here is a picture. Someone thought it was Tamarand, but he said that that wood doesn't have a pine smell, let alone a strong one. Here it is. How do I finish this wood? What is it? The closest match I can find is yellow pine, but quite old, which explains its hardness. Gorgeous zebrawood-like appearance.
