Default Wood species to use in project

Poplar would probably be a good choice but most woods are stable once

Huh? Wood is constantly moving. Not taking that into consideration
when building is asking for trouble.


He's talking about a 1" x 1" frame with a panel (presumably ply). A 1x1
frame isn't going to move enough to even think about even in if it were
left unfinished and used in a Chinese laundry. His only worry would be
warping of the verticals if there are no center rails in the frame.
