Yuzhi Green sinking. Man, ok I gotta be fair, as much as I feel CK is spiritless it smells so good and keeps producing scent without raising the temperature a long time. I'm be editing images for an hour while this piece sits at a steady 11v and I get wafts of amazing florals.

Side note: Has anyone ground up CK fine for incense? I imagine I may need to freeze it?
Grinding CK gummed up my grinders, had to painstakingly clean them afterward.
 
Heating a sliver from my last little piece of Malaysian King from Kedah which I got from Hakim many years ago.

Caramel tamarind resin, with a floral vibe that is uniquely from Malaysian Oudh.

Yamada Matsu log type BB from 2001 simmering on my wabisabitism burner. Yummmmm

The little nugget outside of the bottle is nice. The rest is a mixed bag with some bunk wood.

I just love the smell of this stuff. One of my favorite agar woods in spite of the low grading.

a very rich, pungent, dry resinous burn. No embarrassing notes. Nothing like frankincense, but there’s some thing about its pungency that is reminiscent of the pungency of a good frank cloud.

This morning I put on some Terrenganu wood by The Tea Guru (etsy) - absolutely delicious smell! Wasn't expecting much TBH as the wood was very thin and broke off easily, but a very sublime aroma

Last night I got a bit bored and started sawing random bits of wood, making litte ~0.1g slithers - and cutting through a little and then using my chisel to end the piece. Quite satisfying (except when you choose a 'thin' piece that just splinters everywhere when you try to saw it) - and now I have about 12 pieces of different woods (no idea what's what) for some random burns!
