Best wood to work with
 
What do you guys think is the best wood to use for woodwork ?


Here in Sweden we mostly use birch(http://www.withknobson.com/acatalog/
birch_swatch_LARGE.jpg) its easy to handle and carve in and it looks
great(just check out the pic in the link above, maby thats why IKEA
use them)

And my hometown is called 'Umeå' wich is known as 'björkarnas
stad'(the city of birch) (http://umea2014.blogg.se/images/

go !

Even the local hokey team is called 'Björklöven' (the birch leaf)

I have been waiting for about 5 days now but the shipping times are 10-19 days. As soon as I get them I will let you know. I have not seen you on that forum for a long time now and I was wondering where you are? How did it go with the collection that you got? Here is the link to the beads again http://www.liangdianup.com/beadscrafts_1.htm and here is the link to the Swarovski beads http://www.liangdianup.com/inventory/900020.htm if those links don't work then you can goto www.lducompany.com and click on the beads picture, that should take you right there. I hope you see this message and get back to me cause I miss talking to you :)
