I'm now in Chicago...my second time here...the first ine was in 2012...many things changed...
At that time I decided to do myself souvenir.
I did both Sears Tower and John Hancock building...my skils developed after all these years and I did a mistake at JH buiding.It is rectangular and I did it square.I need to do other in some time in future.Now I have a new dark wood to do it.

@Asssiss that's some very nice looking wood. What is that purple and yellow wood? I've never seen anything like that before, so I'm very curious what it might be.
I recognize several others and have them in my collection:
Goiabão = Goiabao in the US. It's not at all common here, but Woodcraft or Amazon Exotic Hardwoods has been selling it (can't remember which one, may have been both actually).
Pau Brazil = Brazilwood or Pernambuco in the US. A very pretty orange wood used in bow making. It used to be easier to get here but it's a little tough to find now.
Maçaranduba = Masandaruba in the US. Not very common at hardwood suppliers. Mostly found as hardwood flooring.
Angico Preto = Curupay or Cebil or Patagonian Cherry in the US. It's fairly easy to find in the US. As I understand it, there are 4 species/subspecies that fit these names, but you seldom see that specific of detail provided by hardwood dealers.
Pau Marfim = Pau Marfim or Ivorywood in the US. Not very common but occasionally available.
Muirapiranga = Bloodwood in the US and Satine in many other countries. This wood is very popular in the US and very easy to find. It's one of my favorite woods.
Imbuia = Imbuia or Imbuya in the US. Mostly seen as imbuia burl, but occasionally the regular wood is available here.
As for what you are calling "Brazilian Rosewood", the pictures you posted do not look like what we consider as Brazilian rosewood here in the US. Here, Brazilian rosewood = dalbergia nigra. I couldn't help but notice that the one log you posted (Melanoxylon brauna) also goes by the name "Brazilian rosewood". I'm not familiar with this wood and don't believe it's available in the US in a retail setting. I'm wondering if this is what you meant by Brazil Rosewood when you labeled the pictures that way?
