Has anyone ever used mountain ash at all for any projects? I found a fairly large mountain ash tree in the bush, cut it down and sawed it up. The colors are amazing, a dark heart with white sapwood. I turned a few bowls with it, it really rivals some of the more exotic woods in beauty and it's available literally everywhere in Canada...well snowy northern Canada for sure. I will include some pics some of the wood. I just wonder if it's ever been used for anything involving instruments. Here's a link that shows a pic, not the best sample.
