Some more new wood stock...

Well I have the ZAS or WAS (Zoot/Wood Acquisition Syndrome).
I just could not stop myself from getting more wood.
What did I get this time round?
Some Osage Orange, IRW, and HRW.
Osage Orange is commonly used for making bows.
It is a very dense wood and a "drop-in" replacement for the famous BRW according to Alan Carruth.
Well since I can't get BRW so I might as well get a the nearest replacement.
The IRW I got was premium set dark and straight grain.
HRW is by far the most dense wood I have in my collection.
