I thank you for this video. I am trying to identify the wood in a mid century modern shelves that I found at an estate sale. It's made out of the most beautiful wood I've ever seen. I believe the unit is made out of the last type that you featured.

Good info. As for guitar woods, acoustic and electric can vary depending on individual taste. I currently use a Sepele acoustic that sounds beautiful. However, the more common woods would be mohagany sides and back with a Sitca Spruce top. I prefer Adirondack Spruce for a top. Electric is a whole other story. Currently I use a mohagany Les Paul that has the classic Gibson sound. Also, I use a Stratocaster with an ash body (also called swamp ash or lite ash). The Stratocaster also has a birdseye maple neck and fretboard. In the past I've played an eastern rock maple guitar that was loaded with sustain. You could could quite literally do a series of videos on woods used for guitars and other musical instruments. As a guitar player I value the knowledge of those that work with wood. Again, good info and good examples of woods.

@glenmartin6293 жыл бұрын
I think it would be worth a try. We make baseball bats out of ash so a drum stick should take the same forces pretty well.

I live in ST Croix US VI and we have south American Honduras and Cuban mahogany, aka west Indian mahogany.. It ranges in price from 25 to 30 dollars a board foot. I have a mill and those are the only two woods I mill.. I built all my windows, doors, furniture, kitchen with it.. the west Indian mahogany is way better than the south American mahogany, and can be up to 3 times heavier than the Honduras mahogany growing in South America, and is way better on the weathering rot resistance than the South American mahogany.. It's because of the climate here in the Caribbean is drier, the trees are stressed and are slower growing here making for more dense form of mahogany. I've had boards sitting on the ground for ten years in direct weather and one or two passes through a planer and it's like new.. really great wood definitely one of the best..

I think the expression that something is “cherry” refers to the object described being “as new” or “unspoiled”, as in virginal. I don’t think it is related to the characteristics of Cherry wood.
@prepperjonpnw64825 жыл бұрын
So why would those things be called cherry? Why are things that are new or unspoiled or virginal referred to as being “cherry”? It must be linked to either the cherry fruit or the tree itself otherwise it wouldn’t be referred to as being “cherry”.

You are confusing your poplars. The wood you show and the leaf you show are from tulip poplar (not a true poplar but a magnolia; liriodendron tulipifera) Tulip poplar is not related to aspen or cottonwood, the true poplars, (genus name Populus) true poplars are also used for similar purposes with soft, light wood further adding to the confusion.

This was a great video. Thanks. I found a playlist showing how to identify wood by looking at the end grain. It might help other woodworkers. kzbin.info/aero/PLMVjQeszKDAwAuEqT8GzG24F2k5D0AB3v
