2236 Mexico Bocote.

I've done quite a few Bocote bowls, and they're all very oily clogging up you sandpaper and discs. The trick is to remove the deposits frequently, and not let it build up. Even so, you'll never get it all out. This one is small with an easy to do shape. It sold for $99 on 2/13/2024. 5 11/16" x 2", 7.6 oz, sanded to 600gt, Danish oil natural, Beall 3-step buffed.
