Scrollers, two questions for you all . . .
1) I've read some information on Lyptus that tells me it's a "natural hybrid of Eucalyptus grandis and Eucalyptus urophylla" but I can't seem to find what it's scientific name is. I sent an inquiry to Weyerhaeuser but didn't get an answer. Anyone out there know?
2) Has anyone in scrollerdom used this hardwood? It's supposed to have the density of hard maple and the appearance of cherry or mahogany (but less expensive). I'm thinking about using it for my next clock, if I can find it locally, and was wondering how it was to work with and finish.
Any input from hands-on users would be appreciated. Thanx.
