Basswood differences

Oct 03, 2011 2 Replies

Hopefully on abpw, a pic of some basswood will show up. Just wondering what the differences are.



Thanks, Paul



One sample may have been sawn with a course toothed saw and the other sawn with a fine toothed saw.

Check this site and see other examples, hope this helps:

'm not familiar with basswood, at all. Sonny

When I drill a hole in it ,the hole looks just like that end grain, in the smoother ended piece, the hole is also nice and smooth. For whatever reason, it's the difference in the grain in those two pieces.
