Has anyone made any pieces out of American elm? I just sliced up some beautiful 5/4 American Elm crotch. The grain pattern in most of the boards is red and purple with what looks to be feathers in the figure. I gave away the best looking board to one of my son's friends who wants to make a guitar out of it.
Was wondering if there is any thing special about working it or if anyone has worked with it before and could give some pointers. I do know one thing, the boards that came off the mill are heavy, very hard, seem to be real strong.
