WOW they look great. Just what is Texas Ebony anyway? I know I have heard of it here but just can not remember.
As of this time I am now teaching vets again. If you have any lumber scraps we can use them to glue up to make some bowl from a board. Thank You
It is always the right time, to do the right thing.

Common names seem to be Texas Ebony, Ebano, Ebony Blackbead and Ebony Ape Earrings. The scientific name is Ebenopsis Ebano.
