7. Maple and cherry are my favorates.

[SOteric]

8. Teak.

It's the hardest and most durable of woods. Teak grows to be 30 - 40 meters tall. Because of it's natural properties, it is particularly excellent for use in exposed areas.

12. Old growth Tiger Maple dredged from a 125 year logging wreck

preserved by the cold dark waters at the bottom of Lake Superior.

From this I could save a tree that hasn't been logged yet and veneer many pieces of beautiful furniture with a variety of wood older than anything around today (and that no longer exists ANYWHERE else for ANY price.) But If I can't get that (and sadly I can't) I'll take some nice Baltic Birch veneered 11 ply and make a nice baby friendly coffee table...

[leeroysphitz]

17. I get nothin? Not even for the cute little boy? Nothing?

Wow.

That's the last time I hand craft any furniture around here...

[Nostradammit]

19. Cute kid, beautiful table and I love the coasters.

Carry on.

see it in any other form.

45. Now THERE'S a dude who's been hitting the stash a bit too much.

Look at his eyes! You can almost hear him mutter, "Man, I have NO idea what's goin' on..."

[bridgit]

for furniture - black walnut, rustic applique - redwood/redwood burl, etc
