It's not leopard wood, leopard wood has distictive spots in it.

it does look like the wood "Santos Mahogany" that Art said, but its from south america. look at this link http://www.hobbithouseinc.com/personal/ ... antos.htm,. I'll look through some of my exotics and see what I can come up with. Does it look red or more of a brown?

hey all, thanks for the replies on the help, well i took it to home depot, they thought it was mahagony, that wasnt it, so i went to lowes, front desk told me to go back to the flooring dept, where they have exotic wood, and they put the piece of wood next to all their wood, and the closest we can come to is chestnut, same exact grain and all, but we will make a trip to where i got the wood from soon as my truck is fixed again, so i guess for now this is one of the world's mysteries that just don't want to be solved.

 

thanks again all
