Hello everyone, Just joining. Looking for some exotic wood from time to time. I'm from NC and have been woodworking off and on for most of my life. Currently doing a lot of turning.

Thank you, I appreciate all of the comments and Hellos. I will post some pictures of a few of the projects I have done. I am currently looking for some Purple Heart that is 12/4 and at least 7" wide and 36" inches long. Can be larger but at least this size.

Thank you,
Mervin

Here are a few of my projects.
The Chess Board made with Olive wood, Mesquite and Walnut frame. These are the first Chess pieces I've made.

The Mag, Glass is like a lot of the pens and other small kit items I make.

The other Chess board and table are made from Currly Cherry (frame) Paduk and Curly Maple. The base, not shown is made from live edge Cherry with a Paduk center column.

The Walnut table is a book matched table with purple heart in the middle with purple heart trim under the walnut. The ends are book matched cherry. The legs are walnut.

Happy to post more if anyone is interested.

Thank you again for the comments and helping me feel comfortable on this site.

Mike
