Mahogany...

These ones are getting primed and painted.......don't worry, this isn't from the chunk you gave me....Found a place that carries mahogany Ballisters for $3 a pop.

I started turning mahog a few years ago when I fell into a stock pile that has produced over 300 plugs with another 500+ to go. I love the stuff for swimmin plugs, and for heavy pencils and Bottles. If you pay attention to the turning radiuses you need no added weight for action. I seek out and scarfe every scrap piece I can get my hands on. It is easy to turn, sand and seal. takes paint like nothing else.

I use it on my sinking needles, darters and hand carved bunker.... great to work with, does cause minor blunting of the tools...

I've never had any split with a BLO seaing...
