Just had a pile of "Liquid Amber", "Norfolk Pine" and "Silky Oak" arrive courtesy a fishing mate from down South. I've used Silky oak before but only for nude display lures but I've not used the Liquid Amber or the Norfolk Pine before. The Liquid Amber looks like a beautiful timber to work with, from my dent test it appears to be about the same density as White Beech.
Has anyone used these two timbers to make lures? |
