I had a block of Cocobolo ready to cut, so yesterday i picked it up to cut off a few pen blanks. I have had this block of wood since i bought my 1st lathe as the chap who sold me it gave me a few blocks of wood. My Uncle also gave me a good piece of Cocobolo which served me well ....
I'm rambling! To get to the point when i put the Cocobolo on my bandsaw to cut i was amazed to see so many images in the grain. Thought i would share them on here ...
The 1st one is so plain to see, but if you follow the image from the face down, well lets just say use your imagination lol ....
The 2nd picture i can see the face at the top right with some kind of 18th century garment on ...
The 3rd looks like some guy with a moustache, in the desert with the sun above his head ..
