Along with some very nice cocobolo blanks I ordered was a nice, but different, little 'bonus' blank.
Bill, the supplier, says it is stratawood, which apparently he rescued from the jaws of a dumpster.
Whatever it is, and regardless of where it came from, LOML insisted I turn it before any of the cocobolo. I like this stuff, it turned easy, but was very thirsty from being abandoned in the dumpster, it drank several loads of sealer before getting satisfied.
It's said to be dyed laminated Birch.
Anyhow, here's the resulting cigar pen:
Thanks for looking, Ken
