So... As in English ivy? The vine?

Is this lumber or vine form?

If in vine form - if you can saw it up, it would probably make good solid linings for about everything... You may not even need to do anything except wet it to bend it...

BUT... Vine wood is typically useless for anything structural.... It tends to be very flexible and very unstable.... I would be hesitant to use it for anything except linings... and I will build guitars out of about any wood I can get my hands on....

Thanks
