Pretty impressive....how about #ing them and telling us what each wood or substance is...besides "exotic".....do you have a "jig/template" for cutting them out and drilling?

The right hand photo has spalted hackberry as the top three and box elder burl as the bottom 4. The far right box elder and the second from the left are double dyed. All of these are stabilized with plastic polymers.

The left photo top row L to Rt are desert ironwood (poor photo), African rose wood, and burl Wenge. The lower row L to right are burl elm, burl amboyna, fiddle walnut , and feather maple. All are stabilized except the ironwood and rosewood which have too much natural oils to be stabilized. They average $100 each.
