Does anyone have any experience in working with elm wood, Chinese or Dutch? Does it have a nice color, grain, texture etc? How does it mill and sand? Is warping a problem. I'm getting close to the point where I can mill my own lumber and elm trees are regularly be removed during the summer and our local landfill will let me harvest lumber for only a few bucks per tree. I have a large project in mind, dining room table and 4 chairs, and I would like to use a lumber that is not run of the mill lumber yard. Any info you have would really be appreciated. Thanks
