About this Event
What’s the Best Wood for…(Wood As A Material)
A lot of times we seem to know a lot more about our tools than we do about the material we work with. Wood is an amazing natural medium to work with. Getting a better understanding of its characteristics will improve not only your skills but also your designs and projects. In this seminar we’ll learn to work with it as we pay attention to grain, selection for specific projects, understanding wood movement and also picking out and buying just the right piece. We’ll cover various aspects of this material from softwoods to hardwoods, heartwood and sapwood, veneer and solid wood and plenty more.
