Hi All,
After accepting a large parcel of blanks it would be rude not to try one or two....
Well I know why they were being horded!!
Please see for yourself, I did have a couple of voids on the Notus but black CA soon sorted that..

Excellent, Mark.
One of my favourite timbers. Someone sent me a few dyed and stabilised blanks which turned like powder, but the natural timber I like the best.
BTW the buckeye tree is an American Chestnut related to our Horse chestnut not the Sweet Chestnut.
