That is funny I read the whole threafd and said, Wow no one said Sappelle. It makes the absolute best limb veneers. Natural camo. Now for a riser I like coco and osage! Shawn

For a riser, Bocote with Cocobolo (dark or red), Macassar Ebony or Thai Rosewood.  For limbs, Actionboo cores with Claro Walnut veneers.
