Woods that color include black locust (very hard) and staghorn sumac (very soft). Can you get a cleanup-up-end-grain pic ?

Eldaneo, if you send me a small piece, I can probably ID it for you.

If we all get a piece, we could all take another stab at it:)

Yeah, but I probably have a few more samples to compare it to than you do :smile:

Just curious. Why has no one asked what area you and the wood in question are from ? Wouldn't knowing the geographic location aid in identifying it ?

Excellent point. That information is rarely of any help to me because I'm ignorant about such but I'll bet it would be a help to our sawyers.
