Black Locust

published strength properties seem to indicate it's hard enough to make a decent fingerboard. i don't see an awful lot of it here but i have considered it for fingerboards. important to be patient and watch any unknown species to see if/how much it moves as conditions change. that is the wildcard once you know janka and MOE.
