DChafe writes: Jason, I have used Sapele one three other chairs and on numerous boxes. I have also used Sapele as a veneer on various projects. I do like the quality of this wood as the grain has some hidden qualities that seem to come out when it is finished in either a high gloss coat of oil or poly. Posted: 11:58 pm on November 12th

I have been looking for a similiar design to be made with some of our indigenous woods here in hawaii.
I am looking for design plans should anyone guide me to a location.
