But it's tough to work with, especially when you get the curly koa. Because of the complexity of the grain, it's a very challenging wood. Mango is a fabulous wood and it's underrated. For some reason, it doesn't carry the influence that koa does. Mango is some beautiful wood. I work some 30 varieties, generally, because I love the variety.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33742</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're happy to take monies to build this library in whatever form. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35647]]></link><description><![CDATA[We're happy to take monies to build this library in whatever form.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35647</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[At work, you think of the children you have left at home.
