? Does anyone know of other woods that have translucency?
I am presently working on piercing and carving a turned lampshade made of Hackberry it is approx 1/8th thin and is translucent in many places . It was never soaked in anything (only preliminarily rubbed a little with lemon oil) and has been in my shed for about 4 years before turning it. Anyway I am interested to know of possible other woods.
Many thanks from Jeff.
