I did a vessel out of Tigrillo and it down right locked up my lungs immediately. I almost always use a respirator but even a hint of the dust from this wood and I have to run outside. While it's absolutely georgous, it's almost deadly to me. Another wood that makes me itch and irritates my skin is White Oak. Feels like I've been working with fiberglass when I get near the sawdust. How about you all?
