Buying the nicest wood on Amazon. I bought 25 lb of Kiln dried, highly figured, exotic tropical woods online (about 15 board feet). This pack is a assortment of unfinished pieced and a variety of species. This is great wood for small crafts and boxes,. Here are a few of the woods I recived; Costa Rican Mahogany, Mango, granadillo, teak,spanish, goncalo, alves, monkeypod and mango. Amazing wood for a woodworker! #woodworking #exoticwood #woodworking

Nice haul. The Costa Rican Mahogany looks like SPALTED WOOD to me.

I have never seen Costa Rican Mahogany before, but it is a truly lovely wood. Thanks for showing a few finished pieces.

I'm so glad I live 10 minutes from a hardwood store that sells all kinds of exotic wood for woodworking!

Hey Skyler! You are awesome and thank you for the video :) I am happy to watch you for hours and am now thinking of getting a laser cutter LOL

Thank you for showing what the wood looks like with some finish on it. As you said, not too impressive in rough form, but gorgeous with some work

I am really impressed with these offcuts. Many beautiful pieces. Curious about how the end grain looks as I do a lot of end grain projects. Thanks for posting this video!

Really appreciate the info on the different types of wood. I have tried many of the exotics and found them to be good to not so good when it comes to cutting and milling. Koa, Chechin, Honduran mahogany, Sapele, and Olive all work/mill very well. Mango and Mangrove I found to be very fuzzy when cutting. There are many I haven't tried. Something I noticed when sanding some of the exotics was an allergic reaction. Even with a dust mask on! My eyes itched and it took a couple days to settle down. Be careful!!

Thank you for really going over the top in showing us the fine values in and the great value of this purchase. Sharing your fantastic find. I read some reviews. By and large, most buyers thought it was a good deal. Shipping included. I have no experience in this, Skylar. But you've bought twice, and think it's a good deal and that's why you shared it with us. Is that correct? Thank you and God bless you.

Is interesting to see how those different woods look, from rough to a finish state. Thanks I'm curious as to how you mill these shorter pieces that you get. They seem to short to joint/plane down. Are you just using the shorter lengths for boxes, inlays and maybe small lathe turnings?

Hi Skyler, it's Grover. I have a question, on your home page in the community folder there is a breathtaking black and white photo of you, when was that photo taken ? Of the samples held up the Costa Rican Mahogany was the most interesting and my personal favorite

Ouch, $50 plus $46 shipping (no prime free delivery). That's a pricey box.

Be careful-this Amazon seller charges way too much for shipping-so look to double the price.

@woodworkingwithSkyler 9 ай бұрын

Yes, shipping just as expensive as the wood

@flashwashington2735 9 ай бұрын

Yes they're charging too little for the wood!! It makes that shipping look so expensive. They'll see price and shipping when they follow the link. If you take time to read the reviews, they are predominantly happy, shipping and all for the quality of the wood. That is what counts. A couple of reviewers state, when the math is done for shipping, per quantity and quality, the shipping price is better than some of their competitors. Tell you what you want: Someone who sweeps up their shop floor, puts in a box as exotic offcuts for twenty-five dollars and $15.00 shipping so you can brag to your friends about your low shipping costs. Maybe if and when you get some understanding and experience your viewpoint will change. Anyway go look those gift horses in the mouth. Good day. God bless.
