Yup, I decided quite some time back that it was more satisfying to
work with just wood native to North Carolina. Or, free wood. Free wood
is popular wood. Pallets are free, and can have some nice wood - oir
not - "free" is the operational word. I'm not sure where pallets grow.
but I know they're native. Anymore, the only wood I buy sometimes is
plywood. I buy it becuse I know plywood trees are native here too.
