Some would argue that the the risk of lung disease is an acceptable risk
compared to the expense of a Festool dust Extractor.

That sure yellow like Osage Orange or Horse Apple wood.

I have a stick of it that I have aged for 30 years. In the
20 year time, I put it on my metal lathe and turned down a cylinder.
It is so hard it shines. I then let that continue to calm.

No telling what I'll make, but it is beautiful.
