Woodworking Wednesday: Why wood choice matters
Picking the right wood changes everything—not just how it looks, but how it lasts.
Here's what I reach for most:
🪵 **Walnut** – Dark, rich, ages beautifully. This is the heirloom wood.
🪵 **Maple** – Hard and smooth. Takes daily use without complaining.
🪵 **Cherry** – Warm tones that deepen over time. It gets better as it ages.
I can work with most quality hardwoods—if you have something specific in mind, just ask.
What wood do you like seeing in your home? Or working with, if you're a maker?
