I like to build pieces to furnish my house. Nothing I can afford to buy can come close to the quality I'm after. So, I'll just have to get better at woodworking and do it myself. My favorite wood species is probably walnut or mahogany.
And for some reason, I hate oak. Even though I have oak cabinets and oak flooring. But it was here when I moved in. Don't even get me started on quartersawn.

Haha. I hate oak too. I can appreciate any type of wood but my house was over-oaked when I bought it. Must have been the wood of choice in the 70s.
