Nice photos Alex, as always. That saw looks like a real nice piece of machinery.

Alex,
Thanks for some great posts and pics. Like you, I love to cut into a board to see what it reveals.
Along those lines what wood is the least desirable smell you have encountered? For me it Ovamboland

Tom

Hello Tom,

I guess you are talking about Ovangkol? Yes the small is bad of this wood.
Also disgusting, at least for me:

Zebrano and Elm (cat-poooo-woood)

The nicest, by far: BRW
