It depends on what kind of pine it is. Most of the bahamas is covered with Austrailian pine but i think that Andros island has our traditional Slash type pine which is easy carving. The Aussie pine is very hard and splits unless cured fully which makes it all the harder. It has Reddish to pink coloring to it. Good luck.
