Thanks for all the compliments. This guy was a lot of fun to carve. Finishing him was a struggle - or should I say sanding him. With the hard wood every little scratch shows!! The colors didn't come out as I envisioned, but still looks great.

M.I.T. - thanks for the inquiry. Mahogany actually grows here in South Florida. A few months ago I scored a pile when a shopping center clear cut their parking lot!! Check it out, I have only used one piece so far!!
