I'm making a couple of new cases out of snakewood from south America . I still need glass / foam / and cloth . This wood is expensive but I wanted something different . This case will be a site frame for Tilly's Hill . 24''x 24" inches .
That's some beautiful wood there and I've never seen anything like it. I'm a fan of quarter sawn oak myself. I should really get some decent frames and display my better finds in something like that.
That's beautiful stuff! I have a pal who's working some mango wood right now- another very rich, multi-dimensional- looking wood. Very nice frame. Hurry and fill it up and show us!
