Late last night I hand planed a couple pieces of Mystery Wood. I rescued them from the firewood pile back when we moved into this house. My radar told me they weren't from around here. Possibly remnants from a palette that originated in the tropics or Asia. They were scuffed up and a couple nail holes will need to be worked around. Too light to be Jatoba, more dense than the Mahogany I've used but fine grained like that and easy to plane.
I confess, I worked in my pyjamas last night. I know, I promised. But who can resist a good mystery?
