I was just curious what your favorite type of wood is? It does not matter if it is domestic or imported, wild grained or tame. The only thing is, you have to say why you like it.
For instance is it because its easy to machine? Or because its readily available at lumber yards? Or is it just the color of the wood?
I guess I will start...
My favorite wood has to be Ash. I like the look, the grain and with plenty of big Ash trees on our property, I can get some clear, wide boards with little effort. Its kind of a pain to finish, and the smell is pretty bad when you are sawing it up, but I still think this wood is my favorite.
Now its your turn, what's your favorite wood?
