Very refreshing to find someone with an interest in "Ochroma Lagopus". Here is a simple starter treatise on its use in our models and the very important factors of density and grain (how it is sectioned out of the log). Now all we need to do is convence stores to once agine carry contest balsa (four to six pound per cubic foot) instead of the more typical 9 to 12 pound stuff even though it is about double priced.
