The Bowler Hatted Turner:
I consider Boxwood to be an exotic.

Martin Lawrence:

  Decision made, I'm making no more purchases from Amazon until they put those fires out  :P

--- Quote from: Paul Hannaby on August 27, 2019, 09:40:10 PM ---George, you still haven't told us what you mean by "exotics".

Do you mean any imported wood?
Or wood from specific parts of the world?
Or just specific types of wood?

--- End quote ---

To me Exotics are woods from other country's that have traveled from all over the world and you cannot be 100% sure of the origin
I do not want to feel that the wood I am using might have contributed to putting some Tribe or animals out of a home unecessarly what others do is up to them.
Does that answer your question Paul

Regards George

Regards George

burywoodturners:
If exotic means 'introduced from a foriegn country' what does that make some oak burrs I got froma friends woodpile in Spain?#Ron

bodrighywood:
Oak burrs occur in this country as well, purple heart, ebony, gom[ncalo alves etc etc don't. Simple.
