I am an old weekend woodworker, finally retired and am taking time to set up my workshop. Your site has already answered a few of my router questions, like why I burn the wood, so you should expect a lot of questions from me. |
Barbara, this is an older but excellent resource about different woods:
The principal species of woods. I would download the .pdf version as the html version had some annoying artifacts.
This guy has the pictures of most of the wood species. Good luck.
