Les the Black Ash stands out when it is that quality of grain colour wise etc reminds me of Birch at its best. I have been banging on now stopped about taking pics for simplicity and enough quality do you still use one single o/head fluro for your pics even more basic than my way? Anyway you give me lessons on finishing quality, presentation over many years now seems white balance jumps to attention for you every time. Thanks for the showing , making and telling Peter.:waver::claps:
