I purchased 1/8 x 3 x 24 Black Palm for a table top inlay project. I have never seem this wood before let alone used it. This stuff is absolutely gorgeous and quality of the wood is excellent. Don't know how it works yet as won't be starting that project for a week or so but think the customer will love it.

Used this wood for an inlay project were I was cutting it on a scroll saw into small pieces. I found that the only blade I could use successfully was a spiral blade with 48 TPI otherwise the wood would split on grain lines. I also found that it is a good idea to reinforce it periodically while working with it by using thin CA or super glue. The end grain of the wood is also interesting and looks like hammered...
