Hawian Mango?

[Mark4583]

Anyone have a pic of a pen done in Mango? Id like to see how it looks turned.
Also how does this wood turn?

Thanks

Mango turns really easy...like maple but have more open grain. Here is a pic from my album. The 2nd one is mango.

The mango I have is a bit darker than Darios, even with the spalting.

I would agree it turns real easy and is fun to work with.

When my pens grow up, I want them to look like Dario's!!! [)]

I have some of Big Rob's Mango - I should have a crudely turned version of it in a few days....
