BTW, is there anyone / anywhere I can find a guide to what wood looks like when it's chopped up?

Cheers!

I find it usually resembles firewood. :wink:

Seriously, now...

'What Wood is That' by Herbert L Edlin.
The book comes with veneer samples of 40 species.

If you can still get it.
Try abebooks.co.uk.

Well there you go...
I thought it would have been out of print.
Mine was £2.12 shillings! Well thumbed now of course, but it still 'works' and the samples are all there!

Good book.

John :D
 
Hello, my 1st post here too, been lurking for a while! Found much of interest.

I've been using pallets for a few years to make odds and ends - bird boxes, planters, letter trays. I'm amazed at the types of wood that can be found and have been unable to identify many of them. (Well ok, practically all of the hardwoods!)

Just got this book from fleabay for £8.99, including P&P. It looks to be a book full of information and excellent value. It must be a popular book judging by the number of times it had been reprinted. Still can't match the latest couple of interesting bits though!
