Just wondering, can you let us know the name of the store?
"The way of heaven is like the bending of a bow-
 the upper part is pressed down,
 the lower part is raised up,
 the part that has too much is reduced,
 the part that has too little is increased."

Lemonwood does also grow in Central America. It's the national tree of Nicaragua.

      there's a specialty wood store(importer) in portland oregon that usually has some in stock, and they really like it(expensive). their name is Gilmore Lumber.

Hi mullet,
Yes that was me. We cut it up into 6 pieces. Played it save to make sure we got usable pieces out of it. That stuff is dense. We gave his table saw a work out. 
I spent 5 hours visiting with Brian. Came home with 3 staves ready to start. That along with the Lemonwood will keep me in projects for a while.
Brian is a very nice guy, very helpful to a new guy like me.
