Myrtle Laminations?

Not wanting to hijack the myrlte riser thread - I was wondering how myrtle works as a limb wood. If it is heavy enough for a riser, is it too heavy for limb laminations or should it be used only as verneers?

Rick- It will work for risers, laminations, or veneers. It is similar to walnut for core laminations. It can hold a lot of moisture. Be sure to clamp wood veneers and lams between 2 thicker pieces of wood after slicing them for at least a week. This will let any excess moisture escape, and let the lams dry flat. JD
