Actually got this one turned this afternoon. Had a guy send me this wood a few years ago, made a beautiful box call out of it with a birdseye maple paddle and gave that to a really good friend who has taken a few birds with it. The guy I got the wood from said they were making pallets out of this, couldnt believe it!!!!!! Some of the most amazing curl I have ever seen in a piece of cherry. The ferule is elk antler and the mouthpiece is buffalo horn.

I want to know what kind of bozo uses wood that nice for a pallet to begin with???!!! He needs to be flogged, drawn and quartered, waterboarded, tazed and then hung for such an atrocious act! ;D

A lot of the lumber for the building industry is coming from South America and the Pacific Island. you would be surprised what type lumber gets used for pallets. Some of the lumber companies are smart enough to have someone strip them down and plane them, but a bunch gets thrown away. I personally have seen Mahogany, ebony, and Brazilian Cherry.

The Brazilian Cherry I saw came in 1.25 by 8 planks. The shipping manager planed them down and made himself some sand and finish wood floors in his pool table room. Very Beautiful.
