Made a trip to wall lumber the other day and saw some wood way up high it was 3-4 huge slabs of wood like 42 inches wide about 20 feet long. I asked what it was and he told me and said they were 1000 dollars each. It was some kinda tree from the Rain forest in Africa. Wish I could remember. I asked if they had sold any and He said 2. The guy who owns Curlys harley used them for a counter top.

I suspect it was some of this stuff!! It is Bubinga and I bought a slab for just under $400 from Steve Wall and I remember seeing the really big ones up top...
