DWSUDEKUM Posted December 24, 2013 Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 I like that... I like that a lot. How hard is mesquite to work? Thanks for sharing this with us. DW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jehuteh Posted December 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 Up to 1/2 inch it's not too bad, scrolls really well any bigger than that it gets hard to work with because it really is a hard wood. Had some 2" slabs and it dulled my miter saw and table saw pretty quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryEA Posted December 24, 2013 Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 That is a nice bowl anyone would like to have. It looks like misquite has a color ranging from cedar to walnut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jehuteh Posted December 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 the longer you leave it exposed to sunlight the darker red it becomes which highlights the black features that it developes naturally, it really is a beautiful wood and it makes some tasty BBQ as well!!!
