I was turning a waxed 3x3x12 piece of blood wood from a big name wood store and after getting it almost spherical for the vise handles, I got to the dried out and cracked center. Got Wood is the only place I can get reliable wood every time. I get over $100 worth out of the bargain bin every year for Christmas gifts. It never fails. I got the bubinga for the vise from here too, custom order.
