Nice work. I didn't even know sassafras was a tree. Very attractive wood. What's it like to work with?
Blackhart Sassafras is a Tasmanian species of tree, the black colour is produced when a branch breaks and water seeps in, it doesn't change the integrity of the timber. It is a medium density timber and is a great to work with.
