1st of all, i'll post some plugs ive been working on, 35mm ebony with burr elm "button" style inlays. the burr was from one of meny offcuts john (jpt) sent me.
and onto the identification. this wood came from an old window frame that i picked out of a skip (dont worry, it was my grandads old window frame while hes having some work done on the house) and im not sure what it is was farly easy to cut and drill, turned quite horrid, very fibrous, but once sanded and polished, came up really nice, from some angles it looks dull brown, yet from others, has a golden/copper/slightly red tone.
any help would be lovely
