So my wife brought home a piece IPE wood from work and after some research I found out that it comes from South America; I have never used this wood before and could use some good insight. I did notice that the wood is very dense and my wife said that the guy she got it from said that it's very hard to cut. Hopefully someone as used this wood before and could give me some do's and don'ts. Thanks in advance for any help! I wish I had a picture of it but I forgot to take one.
