Made a gun rack out of Cocobolo.


I have never worked with it and it is pretty heavy wood,


I tried to shoot a braid thru it and it went in about a 1/4" and bent to hell.





The wood I started with


(sorry for the crappy pic, taken with a cell phone)

It is for Handguns.



I used a lacquer finish on it.

looks nice, but just imagine how many nice Cocobolo 1911 grips that much wood could make.
