but have a posted a pic of the wood on ABPW.


It's unquestionably oak. Some difference of opinion on ABPW as to whether it's
red or white.

After it was soaked my intent was to wipe it out and use the rag on the
outside. Well I had been tilting the bowl around for maybe a minute or so
and noticed that the oil was going right through the walls. Within 3-5
minutes there was no difference twixt the inside or out in terms of oil
coverage.


BINGO! Positive identification as red oak, not white.
