    Beech one of my favs, 3.2.2010

I love working with beech. I've had some of my clients say it's too bland when they see the pictures, but when I show them a real finished furniture piece they change their minds. I usually include a high contrast wood with it, mahogany is nice or ebonized poplar really looks great.

Made a sideboard and coffee table out of beech last year. I was really happy with the way it worked and finished. Inexpensive too.

I've used beech wood on three funriture projects so far. Definitely like working with it because it's dense yet pretty lightweight. Routes good, planes good all that. don't even bother staining it, a clear finish is all it needs. I've gotten some beautiful boards from here before.
