Anyone know this wood species by the pics? Supposedly old wood. It was all 3 of us could do to get it in home!

July 12, 20187 yr

Very difficult to tell, so difficult that sometimes hundreds of species of tree are labeled as just one species of timber. It looks like 'mai daeng' (xylia xylocarpa), a very common Thai timber and considered something of a poor mans rosewood.

Could be one these or eucalyptus that's a heavy wood.

The legs look like rosewood and very similar to lots of rosewood pieces I have. Yes it weighs a ton I can vouch for that.

The top looks totally different, infact the grain is very similar to an English Ash.

You have to appreciate that you cannot i.d by the colour alone, they will have been stained, even clear stains beautify.

You also have to take into consideration if it is plane quarter or rift sawed this will change the grain that being said it looks like plane sawen

I find the wood here hard to tell what has been used even by grains, I thought wood grains only tell age, I just go by weight hard - heavy, light - soft.

This site is interesting.

Poll -- Ethiopian restaurant in Pattaya?

Jingthing · Wednesday at 08:51 AM2 days

There are a number of cuisines types that are probably more obviously missing in Pattaya now (notably Indonesian and Malaysian) but this topic is about Ethiopian. I'm curious about the interest and possible demand for a decently priced, reasonably good/authentic Ethiopian restaurant here. I know that many urban Americans are familiar with Ethiopian food, but I'm not sure about Europeans and other nationalities. It's my impression that it;'s a kind of food that once tried, the majority will li

I would like to try a beautiful delicious seafood buffet I don't know where to go in Pattaya for this ,hence I'm seeking analysis on this project I'm not particularly concerned about price , but as I don't like crowds or people sitting near me , I don't like too many people where it's obnoxiously overcrowded where people are pushing shoving fighting for the food I find people seem attracted to me like honey to a pot , I could be in a restaurant say Sizzlers and there is hundreds of tables

Takeaways from The Iran Strike

Yagoda · March 1Mar 1

Here are my takeaways: Soviet/Russian and by extension, Chinese AD is worthless in the face of mutli layered properly planned strikes. This bodes ill for Chinese desires to unify Taiwan. 2. Israel is our attack dog. If you are going to have an ally to help you do your dirty work, have the best and the only military in the world that compares is us. Maybe the Finns and ROKs and a couple of Brit Regiments. In todays world, Israel stands out. They are basicly doing our work (1200 strikes vs 90

The war is going great

1tooth · March 6Mar 6

Washington and Tel Aviv now claim they’re “lowering the intensity” of their strikes so they can keep attacking longer. Spare us this bull<deleted>. Iran has been throwing waves of cheap drones and missiles precisely to exhaust US and Israeli weapons stockpiles,and it’s painfully obvious that strategy is working. And there is more: Russia and China are providing targeting data to allow Iran to successful destroy American assets. Is it working? Let’s see: The American satellite imaging

Iran plans to bomb California

3NUMBAS · Thursday at 09:19 AM1 day

Police in California were warned that Iran could retaliate to US airstrikes in the Middle East by launching drones at the West Coast. An alert issued by the FBI at the end of February warned relevant departments that Iran aspired to carry out a “surprise attack” from offshore using drones to target unspecified sites in California. “We recently acquired information that as of early February 2026, Iran allegedly aspired to conduct a surprise attack using unmanned aerial vehicles from an unidentifi

McDonald’s Beef Patties in Thailand, Any Good?

Kyoto Kyle · 1 hour ago1 hr

I’m wondering if McDonald’s beef patties in Thailand are actually any good in terms of meat quality. I can’t remember the last time I had one here. Maybe once or twice many years ago. The reason I’m asking is because I just realized there’s a 24 hour McDonald’s within walking distance of where I’m staying now. If the patties actually taste decent, I was thinking that late one night I might buy two double cheeseburgers, or maybe two Quarter Pounders with cheese, take them home, stack all four pa

Top Marks to Everyone Who Voted for The 47th US President

Terrance8812 · 4 hours ago4 hr

To everyone who voted for Trump because they wanted lower gas prices, lower grocery prices, lower inflation, lower unemployment, no new wars, a secure border, the swamp drained, and a full release of the Epstein files, how’s all that going now? Well, let's do a quick campaign promise scorecard roundup. Gas prices are up, groceries are still way too expensive, inflation refuses to disappear, and unemployment is not exactly heading in the direction people were promised either. The Epstein files a

Why Do People Twerk?

Alpha84 · 9 hours ago9 hr

After encountering countless videos of people randomly twerking online, I’ve landed upon a simple query. Why the ferk do people twerk? One might initially conclude that it is a form of core strengthening exercise. But after long hours of careful observation and extensive video analysis, I have compiled a list of what could be the five most likely explanations. An insect crawled up the bung. Emergency attempt to dislodge a wedgie of catastrophic proportions. Trying to shake loose a coin that
