i bet those are the -3 rob spoke of. special orders maybe?

Probably not. I have three SO 801 connection ordered so those three he is referring to are probably our 801s. Curly Oak/Oak Woodvil style, Curly Oak/oak classic style, Red Stabilized.

But it is going to be really hard to resist trying for a Cocobolo on sale night!!!!!!! Again, I tell you people...... Cocobolo is really ugly!!!!! You don't want that wood.

I'll have to say your WOOD is awfully gorgeous!!! I don't know how red the 18490 will be (the redder the better) as it is coming from Robert's stock. It's hard to tell from pics how red his will become after first coat.

I have a stabilized piece of maple, that I've never sent to Robert, that isn't burled, that looks to be like a cherry red. I'll snag a pic of it, from my server, in a bit to post here.

BTW... the whole downstairs of my house, except for ceilings and floors is various shades/types/patterns of red.

Hugs, Alice

Your right...you can't tell from the contition the wood is in the pic. Im sure those stabilized wood mods will be gorgeous. To give you an idea what my Nebula looked like before sanding and finish...see here.
