Title: Help!!! Cocobolo Supplier needed
Post by: TC209X50 on February 15, 2016, 07:14:00 PM

I need to find a supplier for Cocobolo. I'm assisting a friend who is looking for a piece to make a bow out of. We are looking for a piece to match a current set of limbs that is the traditional reddish in color. The size needed is 22" x 2" x 3 & 3/4"
Thanks,
Dan

Since it was put on the CITES list it is getting hard to find.
