Hi MM,
Granted, beautiful F/B, but from what Tree.

Very spiffy, is it Blackwood?

Definitely not Blackwood Dave...MM

Milled some more of this the other day
Any thoughts on what it might be

From the first few shots I was thinking either CL or Red Ash, and as I'm sure you would recognise the smell of CL, I'll throw my hat into the ring with Red Ash. It does look a bit light for RA but probably the ground it was growing in.

Can imagine that as a pen or a grinder if it is big enough.
