Nope don't know either way it is not very wide so I will have to keep it low weight.

Kelly that looks like ash. If it were me i would chase a ring on it but it would probably work either way. Looks like it has pretty thick earlywood rings so i would recommend low poundage.

You can always have an "accident" while getting it in the house! Or just steal the top. Tell her it sounds better that way. Dave.

Lol it was built in 1925 so im guessing they are real ivory. The whole thing is made of amazing bits of bow wood...an "accident" may be in order. Its not like there is any emotional attachment. The guy was moving and didn't want to take it.

piano sounding board sitka spruce arrows- if your'n one has a spruce board and not something else. sometimes the sounding boards are a little too thin for a decent arrow- however you could laminate two layers together- then shape them- would make them stiffer- and keep their shape better- however sitka stays real straight for arrows anyway!

I need suggestions on how to get this table from my sister. The wood is all mango wood that is 2" thick and at least 18" sections... could make a bunch of risers...

Have you tried asking? Ralph, if you do manage to get it away from her, see what the legs are made from. Chances are they're the same wood and you would have a bunch of billets or lams. It's really nice looking wood. Dave.

I have tried asking and attempted stealing but for some reason she loved that ugly chunk of wood... Why don't furniture makers realize that plain wood goes in large items and great wood goes in bows!

I found a couple of hickory ax handles that might just splice together... neighbor said he needed some help moving some items in his garage and I happened to notice them sitting by the side. We will see if my bartering skills are up to par
