Mark Maunula:

I recently was able to get a couple hundred board feet of butternut. Looking at the tree identification, I see that it is a very soft wood. What type of projects would it be good for and what type of projects should I probably avoid? Thanks!

Tracy Keaton:

I have a 1780s Chinese Calligraphy Scholar Cabinet that truly is in great need of some type of hydration! I am so afraid to touch it because it is so very thin. Could someone recommend something?

Evan Dunville :

I'm going to build a plane till really soon, any suggestions on the angle to use?
