Newtonia Hilderbrandttii. Air and kiln dried. All dimensions shown are in inches (length x square).
This reddish brown timber is dense and hard, with alternate dark and light lines and dark, fine specs in the medullary rays. A very pretty timber. It turns well and to a good finish straight off the tool and might even take a fine thead but I haven’t tried that yet. Haven’t tried it with oils either but with cellulose sanding sealer and wax it comes up to a fine gloss. Perfect for boxes too.
