Ended up with 8 sets of H. Mahogany, 2 sets of Wenge and 2 sets of Zircote. Thanks for all your help.

The mahogany I picked up from a cabinet guy that closed shop. The exotic came from a lumber warehouse just over the state line called Advantage Lumber

Nice stuff! Congrats on a successful resaw! I do a fair amount of resawing, in fact I had my 1/2" blade on over the weekend resawing a lacewood block into narrow slices for rosettes. I also have a few boards I'll be resawing into bindings this weekend. I don't have risers on my bandsaw, so I am limited to a 6" opening. I have a nice board of claro walnut I need to resaw, but it is too high for my saw.
