Ipe wood
This wood is very dense and requires sharpe blades to cut.
Talk about brittle this wood provides a lot of splitters as my
hands can attest.
I recommend using this wood with the stipulation a person
knows some of the drawbacks that comes with working
this wood.

IPE wood review
1. Sizes all pieces were good.
2. All pieces were warped not bad but enough.
Since I live on the Texas Gulf Coast it's humid
and much different than dry Arizona.
3. Three pieces where well matched but fourth was
different in color and grain. I am trying to come up
with a way to use fourth piece so that build doesn't
come out looking odd. If I was hand selecting four
pieces for myself I would not have selected fourth piece.
4. Packaging was excellent and there was no damage to wood.
5. I like the wide choices of wood offered there is nothing like
it in Texas at least close to me.
Familiarity: I've used it in several projects
