Well-selected, packed, and delivered
These pieces are being used to reinforce the chair legs of a 40-year-old dining room set that originated in San Salvador, Central America. The wood is an excellent match for the chairs and I was very pleased with the care that was taken in selecting the wood and the promptness with which it was delivered.

Mahogany turning squares; I'll try again
These squares were to be used as legs for a coffee table. But both pieces showed a lot of sapwood; one is unusable for this project, and the other only marginally so.
Familiarity: I haven't used it yet
