I'm hoping to make some earrings by cutting slices off of a wood laminate block - by gluing together pieces of various woods and cutting slices, I can reproduce a neat design rather easily.
However, it seems that the wood I've bought (bloodwood) is completely unsuitable - it has ginormous, visible pores in the endgrain and would look awful for this purpose. Can anyone tell me how I determine if wood is suitable for this purpose or not?
Thanks!
