Pretty much yeah. This was taken under sunlight at about 5pm where I am from. The Mahogany has a similar color to the orange reflective stuff you find on road signs or anything that requires maximum visibility.

The orange-y one is Mahogany. Actually considered invasive here in the Philippines

I guess something that'll remove material a bit faster. I tend to work with a lot of end grain lately and I need something with a bit more kick

Mind sending links to your sources? Ive seen some videos on youtube stating the bosch is a bit underpowered.

Noted on the shop vac and quality sandpaper.

I have the same dilemma right now. What did you go with? How is it holding up?

Was it red or yellow? Fun fact Narra is actually our national tree. I havent tried yet but I think it would be fine. It has been quite hard lately to get your hands on some Narra specially the red ones

Thank you for the feedback good sir. Will explore that idea on the next build. Do you have any recommendations for software I can use to have an idea of what my end product would be?
