I've just got a nice pile of Sapele mahogany for free.

Overall there is around 60 pieces. Length varies from 2.5 meters down to just over a meter. Most of the boards seem to be 70mm wide but some are smaller.

I have just got no ideas what to make with all this wood. Any ideas? I will be making a little box but other than that I don't have any plans for this wood at the moment.
 
Guitar necks! Maybe that's just me?

500 spice racks?

Nice score by the way. Was it reclaimed from somewhere?
 
Give it to the rest of us, we'll find a use for it!

I have been told that Sapele makes a good gift!!!! :lol:

Mixed with a contrasting timber, Sycamore, Maple etc. it would make a fine Blanket box or some such thing.

Guess that's just you. It was given to me by an old antiques restorer who is packing up. Just a shame he gave all his tools to his son or it would have been an amazing score.
