Has Anyone tried Michael Connors new Rosette and circle cutter ?
I'm still using the Dremell with success ( For Now ) but I have to agree with what Martin has said.

Thanks Al, I wasn't aware of the rarity of Honduran I thought it was just the Brazillian that was valuable and rare, I should have researched before posting :oops: my excuse is that I concentrate on Domestic species :) That said , I am noticing variations in the grading of a lot of species that can ...

Re: Distinctive Timbers in Tassie
I am well aware of how Luthiers are being targeted by the rip off merchants, and I personally don't agree with the unmentioned Tassie supplier. Probably should not have mentioned that.

And the prices are truly for the ill informed. I say leave them alone. Sooner or later they will be brought back...
