Title: What kind of wood is this
Post by: duckslayer on April 09, 2009, 09:23:07 PM

I found this wood and so I thought I would try and make something out of it. But I have no idea what kind of wood so if you could help I would be greatful!!! Has very tight grain and as I was cutting it on the lathe it started to look like fur, that is the only way I know how to explain it. Thanks guys.

Beaverwood :biggrin: :biggrin:

I'm not sure, but my first guesses would be either ash or white oak

Not sure either, maybe Myrtle ?
Looks good though.

Reminds me of ash as well. It also has the look of Olivewood. :confused:
