I started doing some basic woodworking while renovating our house, and really enjoyed it. I also seem to like all the high quality furniture, cabinets, etc. that I see, but can't afford to buy them so I have grand visions of building my own. I joined this group because of all the great posts and people willing to share their knowledge.

Welcome to Lumberjocks. The projects are an inspiration, the information is priceless and the people are supportive. The only problem is, the site can get addictive.

Similar to how hardwoods like birtch and maple get black ink-like lines spiderwebbing thourgh the wood is called spalting and boxeldar gets the reds and the pinks that mable the wood. It’s accually the begining of the rotting proccess. Pine gets a blue gray to a black patching or streaking in the wood. I have even seen purples, its beautiful! Keep an eye out on my project page this week I’ll put the bed up.
