I went out to my sawyer today to get some turning stock and he mentioned this site http://www.hobbithouseinc.com/personal/woodpics/_discussion_figureandgrain_pics.htm

This guy knows his wood.
Lots of great references for you all.
I never hear anyone mention this site here, so I thought I’d throw out a link for you all.

Enjoy.
