    Nice one Trevor, good score with the blank. I think the penny leaf is a reasonably common introduced tree in parts of Qld, maybe even pest status. Probably more need to be made into pens and bowls etc.

    also known as Indian rosewood, East Indian rosewood, dalbergia, Himalaya raintree, Indian dalbergia, penny leaf tree, penny-leaf tree, shisham, sisso, sissoo

    the blank I got was marked as Penny leaf but as soon as I put chisel to it I smelted the odor of rosewood
