For in person pick up only. We will not ship this anywhere.
This cart has a mix of species and is usually something we would fill our bargain barrels with. I would guess that if we priced the pieces individually, the cost would be at least double what we are asking here.
Some of the species I see on the cart are Hard Maple, African Blackwood, Mexican Bocote, Ziricote, Cocobolo, Honduras Rosewood, and Wenge.

This is a previously undescribed Dalbergia (rosewood) specie from an obscure corner of Panama. Only one small, expensive log was available and we took a chance by buying it. The useable material was quite nice with beautiful color and grain and a sweet, aromatic scent. We dried and sawed some guitar backs and sides out of one billet and it has very nice tonal qualities. We also have some 1" and 2" lumber available. The supply is very limited of this rare rosewood.

Also called Acajou, Tropical American Mahogany, and Honduras Mahogany. This medium to large tree occurs throughout Central and South America. Related to Cuban Mahogany (Swietenia mahogani) and Pacific Coast Mahogany (Swietenia humilis). It produces one of the classic furniture and cabinetmaking woods. The heartwood varies from a light reddish-brown to a rich, dark red. Generally straight grained and exceptionally stable, it is easy to machine, hand plane, sand and finish. Occasional logs produce several figures, curly, quilted, and the rare plum pudding figure which looks like large drips running down the board. Used in fine furniture and joinery, boat building, and in the guitar industry for acoustic sets and necks.
