Marble wood
« on: January 27, 2016, 11:02:00 AM »
Anyone use this in a riser or have one with marble wood in it?
I was looking at some the other day. It's pretty and Looks like it has lots of grain. I was thinking about getting some.

I have a few in the works. Here is the only one done. I like it a lot, kind of a mix up of B/W ebony grain-wise and zebrawood. After finishing it takes on the honey color of aged osage. Nice. This one is with bocote, but I can tell you that it looks INCREDIBLE with cocobolo.
