Ash:
A tough hardwood that is somewhat elastic, extensively used for making bows, tool handles, quality wooden baseball bats, hurley sticks and other uses demanding high strength and resilience. The two most economically important species for wood production are White Ash in eastern North America, and European Ash in Europe. |
 |
Basswood:
The wood is pale brown, sometimes nearly white or faintly tinged with red; light, soft with fine close grain; clear of knots but does not split easily. It is a common wood for use in the production of solid body electric guitars, where it is considered an analouge for aspen and poplar, because it is light, strong and resonant, though it is usually used for guitars that will be painted an opaque color, because it's lack of notable grain makes it an unattractive candidate for transparent finish. |
 |
Birch, Red:
Red Birch comes from the heartwood of the yellow birch tree. This diffuse-porous wood is hard and strong and is dark brown tinged with red. The texture is fine and uniformed, often having a wavy or curly figure present. |
 |
Birch, Yellow:
Yellow birch is one of the largest U.S. hardwoods when growing in its native range. That range spans from eastern Canada and the Great Lake states to extreme NE Georgia. An immediate identifier of yellow birch is the mildly aromatic wintergreen smell of the inner bark and a yellow tint on paper-like bark. |
 |
Bubinga:
Bubinga is medium red-brown with lighter red to purple veining. Grain is straight to interlocked. It's texture moderately coarse but even and works easily with hand or power tools. Native to tropical regions of Africa and South America, it grows in swampy or periodically inundated forests, as well as near rivers or at lakeshores. |
 |
Butternut:
Also known as "White Walnut", Butternut is a lesser known member of the black walnut family. Butternut wood has the grain pattern of black walnut with a medium honey brown color with tan and red highlights. |
 |
Cedar, Aromatic:
Aromatic Cedar is not a hardwood and tends to be softer than most woods. Its red and purplish hues swirl in beautiful patterns and subtle elegance, which accentuates the natural beauty of many wood working projects. |
 |
Cherry:
Cherry is a premium American hardwood prized for its natural luster, attractive grain, and rich, warm glow. This wood has a consistently high quality of grain, color, and width. Cherry is typically harvested from the Allegheny Forest region of Pennsylvania and West Virginia, an area recognized for its sustainable forest practices. |
 |
Douglas Fir-CVG:
Douglas-fir wood is used for structural applications that are required to withstand high loads. It is used extensively in the construction industry. Other examples include its use for homebuilt aircraft. Douglas-fir are also the most common Christmas trees in the United States where they are sold alongside true firs like Noble and Grand. |
 |
Hickory:
Hickory is a great choice for cabinetry due to it's extremely tough, yet flexible qualities. It is also valued for tool handles, bows, wheel spokes, carts, drumsticks, lacrosse stick handles, golf club shafts, the bottom of skis, walking canes and more. Baseball bats were formerly made of hickory but are now more commonly made of ash! |
 |
Jatoba:
Although Jatoba is sometimes referred to as Brazilian or South American Cherry, it is not a cherry tree and it is in no way, botanically or otherwise related to Black Cherry, a very common American hardwood. It is a tree common to the Caribbean, Central, and South America and Brazil. Commonly used for furniture, flooring and decorative purposes, this wood also makes a fine cabinet lumber. |
 |
Lacewood:
Also known as "Silky Oak", Lacewood works well with hand and machine tools. Lacewood is such a neat, exotic wood that it is used extensively in veneers, decorative boxes and ornaments, intarsia, plywood, and turning, in fact in any craft project, where you would like a rather exotic wood appearance without having to deal with a really hard wood. |
 |
Mahogany, Honduras:
Honduras mahogany is one of the best woods for machining, cutting, and planing. Tools should be kept sharp, and a low angle should be used when planing Mahogany with a wavy grain pattern. Honduras Mahogany can be sanded very easily and efficiently and is a great wood for many wood working projects. |
 |
Maple, Birdseye:
Birdseye maple isn't a variety or species of maple, but rather a phenomenon that occurs within several kinds of timber due to an unknown cause. Birdseye maple, occurring in Acer saccharum, only refers to the most common species of tree. Millers also find the deformation in red maple, white ash, Cuban mahogany, American beech, black walnut, and yellow birch. |
 |
Maple, Curly:
Also known as "Flamed Maple," "Fiddleback," and "Tiger Stripe," Curly Maple is a feature of maple in which the growth of the wood fibers is distorted in an undulating pattern, producing wavy lines known as "flames". This effect is often mistakenly said to be part of the grain of the wood but it is more accurately called "figure", as the distortion is perpendicular to the grain direction. Musical instruments used to be widely made of this prized wood. |
 |
Maple, Hard:
Also called "Hard Rock Maple" or "Sugar Maple", Hard Maple has excellent turning properties, a fine, even texture, and a natural luster. Somewhat difficult to work due to high surface hardness, it is typically used for furniture, flooring, and industrial parts. Hard maple paints and finishes very well. |
 |
Maple, Soft:
Soft maple is often used as a substitute for hard maple or stained to resemble other species such as cherry. Its physical and working properties also make it a possible substitute for beech. It grows throughout Eastern U.S., and to a lesser extent on the West Coast where it's known as bigleaf maple. |
 |
Oak, Red:
The Northern Red Oak, or "Champion Oak," is a native of North America, commonly found in the northeastern United States and southeast Canada. The northern red oak is one of the most important oaks for timber production in North America. The wood is of high value. Red oak wood grain is so open that smoke can be blown through it from end-grain to end-grain on a flatsawn board. |
 |
Oak, Quarter Sawn Red:
Quartersawn Oak is one of the hallmarks of the Arts & Crafts and Prairie styles. At the sawmill, the log is first split into four quarters (hence the name 'quartersawn'), then cut on the diagonal from the center of the tree out toward the edges so as to reveal the distinctive stripe or 'ray fleck' running across the grain. This is available in red or white oak. |
 |
Oak, White:
White oak is impervious to liquids, and has been used extensively for ship timbers, barrels and casks. Widespread throughout the Eastern U.S., the white oak group comprises many species, of which about eight are used commercially. The sapwood is light-colored and the heartwood is light to dark brown. White oak is mostly straight-grained with a medium to coarse texture, with longer rays than red oak. |
 |
Oak, Quarter Sawn White:
Quartersawn Oak is one of the hallmarks of the Arts & Crafts and Prairie styles. At the sawmill, the log is first split into four quarters (hence the name 'quartersawn'), then cut on the diagonal from the center of the tree out toward the edges so as to reveal the distinctive stripe or 'ray fleck' running across the grain. This is available in red or white oak. |
 |
Padauk:
Also known as "barwood," "comwood," "corail," and "African coralwood," Padawk works well with hand and machine tools, glues easily and holds nails and screws well. It finishes to a beautiful sheen without the need for stain. Widely used for fancy turnery such as knife and tool handles, it is also prized for high end cabinets, furniture, carving, veneer, inlay, flooring, dyewood, joinery, dowels, shuttles, spindles, paddles, and boat building. |
 |
Pine, EWP D-Select:
Eastern white pine (EWP) is used in the manufacture of interior planks, clapboards, furniture, doors and windows, decorative veneers, and moulding/millwork. Additional value-added markets for EWP raw material include toys, woodenware, novelties, signs, caskets, and products used in building construction (EWP furring was formerly a leading construction wood), shade and map rollers, and Venetian blinds. |
 |
Pine, EWP Furniture:
An EWP grade specifically for furniture projects such as doors, windows, cabinets, and decorative veneers. |
|
Pine, EWP Wide Furniture:
An EWP grade specifically for larger furniture projects due to it's wide framing. |
 |
Poplar:
A versatile wood that is easy to machine, plane, turn, glue and bore. It dries easily with minimal movement in performance and has little tendency to split when nailed. It takes and holds paint, enamel and stain exceptionally well. |
 |
Rosewood:
Rosewood refers to a number of richly hued timbers, often brownish with darker veining but found in many different colors. All rosewoods are strong and heavy, taking an excellent polish, being suitable for flooring, furniture, turnery, musical instruments, billiard cues, and chess sets (the black pieces). |
 |
Teak:
Teak is a tropical hardwood that is easily worked and has natural oils that make it suitable for use in exposed locations, where it is durable even when not treated with oil or varnish. It is used in the manufacture of outdoor furniture, boat decks, and other articles where weather resistance is desired. It is also used for indoor flooring and as a veneer for indoor furnishings. |
 |
Walnut:
Many customers appreciate its "easy of use" and beautiful colours to use as a craft wood in all their small turning and scrollsaw projects. The fact that it is the only dark North American wood, has added to its reputation. Walunut lumber is used for fine furniture, architectural woodwork, musical instruments, decorative panels, interior trim, and flooring. |
 |
Wenge:
Wenge is a good choice for flooring strips and blocks and for interior and exterior joinery and general construction work. It is a good wood for turning and is sliced for paneling and veneers for furniture and cabinets. As with most exotic woods, it is selected for its colour and dramatic appearance in any project that seems appropriate. |
 |
Zebrawood:
Because of its hardness, Zebrawood is used for skis and tool handles. It is a decorative exotic wood, and as such has only a small following that even knows it exists, but those that do venture to use it, are awed by its dramatic colour banding. It was also used in previous Mercedes Benz Cars! |
