I<font color=''#000000''> can only tell you the story that was told to me by the people from Sig. I'm not saying it's right, or wrong. But they have much more experience in buying and selecting balsa wood than I do. I use their wood in a lot of my builds so I can't argue with their judgement.

Well, Sig might be right, it depends where the wood is growing. As you know the Colombian government really does not control ALL of their territory (the guerilla and the drug lords do). There is a big part of the Colombian territoty their government does not control, and the area that sorrounds that part is also extremely dangerous. One of the good things of the balsa wood is that it is fast growing.
