Thanks Gino, I do appreciate it.
Baser, if I remember correctly, he called it "Julang Wood" (Afzelia javanica). but i never pay attention anyway

I did try for a while, but am too stupid and too lazy
anyway, I took different route with my bro, I got an itch bout slipjoint, not making them tough, just collecting
mm...i'm a full time art director btw and right now i'm "trying" to build a slipjoint in my spare time, it's been 2 months now, maybe I'll finished it in a year or two....
