Here are a few woods i never knew existed. I think they are Beautiful woods. Just wondering if anyone has made cue or know of a cue made from these woods.
#1 BeesWing Narra

Narra is the Philippines' national wood.
It's also common in Borneo, Indonesia and neighboring southeast asian countries.
They are light, prone to checking and twisting/warping.
IMO they would be best cored. Drilled and dipped in stabilizer and let sit for a while. Rebore and doweled later when it has stabilized.
 
I've used Narra quite a bit. Right now I'm working on a Narra on Narra where the forearm is more of a brownish piece of Bees Wing Narra and the Points and Butt are more of a red color.
 
These two cues are narra. In the first pic, the narra handle is cored. The second pic is of a cue where narra is only an accent wood.
