There's no way you would be able to smell them without sanding them or burring them up a little bit

@@thecloneguyz nah Hickory,White/Bur Oak,Mulberry,Eastern Red Cedar/Juniper and Black Walnut can be identified without any help from sanding or burring, they are very distinctive smells.. only confusing for people who don't smell them all the time... wouldn't call it something to be proud of...

Yes, but being able to determine one from another(except for pine or cedar) seems downright Holmesian. So I suppose the skill could be handy for a carpenter or... detective?
