Australian and NZ woods wanted

@Friedrich9 That's beautifully done with alternating the pieces, and I like the inclusion in the lid. I'm inspired!

Black palmira is Caryota urens, also called kithul. It's very much like black palm (Borassus spp.) except it's even spikier and harder to work. I have about 22 x 2.5 x 7/8" spare and you're welcome to the lot

Thank you, I regret selling it. That back and forth was by accident. My favorite stacked bowl I ever turned.

and yes please. I’d love that timber

Guayacan	152 × 102 × 32mm	6" × 4" × 1 ¼"	639 g	1.41 lbs

Hi that sounds great. There were some others I was interested in. But still haven’t had a chance to go over your entire list. Did you have an idea of some of the ones you’d want in exchange?

Hi @Friedrich9 . I have a long list of all the woods you have that are on the Wood Database poster and I don't have. We can pare this down to what you can find at 1 x 1 x 12" or so, and however many would be a fair trade. If you have any others you think I might like do let me know. The poster is just a handy reference point.
