nice piece of wood. I would get realllll nervous touching a tool to a piece of wood that costs $28.00/bf. 8-O

Ebony some time runs $50.00 to 80.00 a BF there is a piece listed on eBay 1.5 x 1.5 x 18 for $35.00

That is money well invested and while waiting for it to arrive you can develop some projects to make use of it. When you do make something with it, post a pic, I would like to see what the wood looks like finished.

Merry Christmas,
Albert, Al or whatever
