Blackwood? Oh wait, your are an Aussie IIRC. Is that a kin of Ebony? Dry, sawdust like sand, fine grained, mills to a high polish if your tooling is sharp. I am wondering if it could be used in place of Ebony, which is from Gabon, Africa, and about $150 a board foot here in the states for a pretty solid black. Getting it past customs takes more weight in paper than the square foot weighs. Chain of evidence type of thing.
