In Response To: Re: Strip: Petrel pics (Scott Fitzgerrell)

: Any comments so far on weight/workability, etc.? Cost? Available lengths?

Check out the wood database. There's tons of information.
http://www.wood-database.com/wood-identification/

Juglans spp.: Peruvian Walnut, Nogal (Spanish for Walnut),
Average Dried Weight: 38 lbs/ft3 (610 kg/m3)
Basic Specific Gravity: .50

Juglans nigra: Black Walnut
Average Dried Weight: 41 lbs/ft3 (655 kg/m3)
Basic Specific Gravity: .51

Weight-wise it should be very similar to it's North American cousin.
