Working and finishing Shedua
Machines and glues reasonably well for a dense exotic; interlocked or striped grain zones can tear out, so light cuts on figured faces help.
Takes oil and film finishes well and shows off its striped figure; a popular guitar back/sides and cabinetry wood, not typically used for cutting boards.
Sold as is. Grain, colour and figure vary from piece to piece. Confirm the dimensions your build needs before you buy.
