Sounds like a great deal. It is pretty wood.
Be carefull with that stuff though . Use lots of dust collection as well as a high quality dust mask. Some people are alergic to it . I am one of them.

I often use 1/4" aromatic cedar for jigsaw puzzles, primarily our Christmas card puzzles. I get it from Wildwood Designs. When they have it in stock, it's about $7 for a sheet 16" x 24".
As Bill says, wear a dust mask when cutting cedar. Other woods don't bother me, but I cough all night if I don't protect myself with cedar. The result smells good, though!

Reply to Wood identification neededby dgmanThe first picture is Wenge, pronounced WHEN-ghay or WHEN-Gii. It is a very hard wood. It’s splintery and very hard to cut. When finished, it is almost black. I use it when I need a black wood for Intarsia. I do not know anything about the other wood.

by vgrafI have a new neighbor who did a lot of woodworking in the past but had to give it up because of allergies. He sold his shop equipment and wood stockpile when he moved here, however he kept a few pieces of fancy wood and showed them to me. The first one (First Photo) he had no idea what it was. It is...
