WOOD SAMPLES
I have compiled photos of the woods that I use in handcrafting my designs. The list below describes the woods as well as showing a photo of the grain. Please note that no two pieces of wood are the same. Each piece has unique grain and figure and will vary from board to board. The photos are an example of the woods color and grain and is NOT the actual board being used to create your piece. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
