Reminds me of red birch. |

Sort of Elm-like. That's my guess. |

Then again, the color looks like Chestnut. That'll be my other guess. |

No one's guessed it, but here's a hint. It came from my neighbor's yard, and yes it's indigenous to the USofA. Al |

Hi Hesh: Thanks for the welcome! Currently I'm an enthusiastic luthier-in-the-making. Spell check.....thesaurus....grammer editor sign me up!
Al: I'll take maple (sugar?) for $100. If that fails, then I'll opt with Hesh as I'm sure this "wood" sample won't float either!

Sassafrass. I think that's with four s's, not five. So: Sassafras. Even though I'm liking Black Locust as a guess now.... Steve |

man-o-man, wish the picture wasn't so blurry. Is it a true rosewood that grows in Florida but is considered a weed tree in the rest of the world?? If you have the Google toolbar installed their is a spell checker on it that works on web forms and forums..give it a try. It'll even separate words run together. |
