Description
From carpenters to artisans, the choices are plentiful when it comes to working with wood. How to decide? This portable reference includes details on selecting and using more than 200 species of wood from around the world. Each species gets full attention with its own photo, plus in-depth information on the wood's working properties, seasoning requirements, typical uses, and safety considerations. Special emphasis is given to wood figure and defects, as well as health hazards of working with certain woods. Drawings of the tree, leaf, flower, and fruit of most of the species are also included. Along with 200 full descriptions, another 200 species are listed in brief.
