A while back I read on the forum about soaking the wood Wenge in Chlorox to make it change. Recently I had a chance to pick up some Wenge from a local hardwood dealer and so tonight I cut a small piece to try the bleach.
Well, I was not expecting such results. This is the damnest wood. I can't wait to turn pens, bowls and make other flatware projects using this wood. Take a look at what 1 hour in Chlorox has done to the wood on the right. The other piece is how it was bought. Take a look, it is very interesting.
And thanks to whoever wrote that note about the wood. And thanks to Mrs. Foster, the teacher who taught me to read.
