MeyerFittings Posted April 20, 2019 Report Posted April 20, 2019 Finally in cutting up a piece of mountain mahogany I pulled out a dead bug. This is the hardest (almost) wood in the USA. Always wanted to get a look at one. All I ever see is the tracks full of dust. Pretty big sucker too -almost 1 cm. I'll put him in a little jar - might even make a little cape.
