    Is cocobolo an irritant?

    15 years I think, at least ten plus years I have been turning, at times with cocobolo, and never once had any reaction. Life just got its own back. I was at a Game and Country show in Oxfordshire over the weekend, under canvas so in the shade, but was so hot I was wiping my forehead with the...

But I made a flat top version for my mom probably 16 years ago, and it's one of her favorites. When I saw this kit at Rockler, I knew I had...
