Well guys, it appears that we have a new spammer cheap trick to watch out for. The OP, RebeccaLeon, edited the original post and added a spam link. I’ll flag it for deletion. “She” probably hoped that no one would notice. Makes me wonder if the three spam posts immediately preceding this posts are somehow related.

wow gone for a while and the place gets all out of wack. no pun intended !
back to the original question,,I didnt notice if was there a description of how the lumber was cut ? rift saw'n flat saw'n or quarter swan ?
This may not pertain to any thing but years ago we used a lot of Brazilian mahogany , we had issues with what is called shake, very fuzzy grain , one of the senior members said it was caused by the constant bending of the tree as it grew . we also had issues with warping when the stress was released , he said not all trees are created equal. maybe it grew on a hill or in a area where it had to grow in a curved manner when cut the stress is released Not to add fodder to the fire but Mahogany glues rather nicely , we used several thousand BDFT and glued a lot , it was used because of its strength in building foundry patterns , it is very strong and it didnt crush as bad as other woods when sand was rammed around it into forms .
