    Wood database is a great reasource John,you can learn alot.
    Whats even more interesting is to read about woods that can no longer be imported so will soon disapere (like Ivory)
    also woods that are extinct such as coromandel.Believe it or not,certain woods are very collectable and can bring very high dollors.

    exceptional choices for the woods. love it!
    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.
