    Default Spalted Fiddleback Blackwood

    Decided to dress a piece of Australian Blackwood (Acacia Melanoxylon) all round, to highlight the grain dimensionally.
    The piece has mild spalting to the edge of one side and was curious as to how it would 'scrub up'...so to speak .
    Provenance of the wood...Cedarton...MM
