Good Net Resource for Identifying Wood?
I'm curious about identifying the wood used in the floors of my house.
It's an older house (100+ years)with finished wood floors, which appear to be the original subfloors. I'm pretty sure the floor is pine (no experience with flooring, but I'm fairly good at ID'ing wood used in furniture), but I hear people talking about "yellow pine" and "heart pine" and so on, and I've grown curious about what kind of pine this is. Does anyone know of any good Internet resources for looking at and learning about different kinds of wood? (I don't object to buying a book, per se, but since this is just kind of a passing curiosity....) Or perhaps one of you "wood pros" can provide a description of the identifying characteristics of one kind of pine vs. another? Thanks in advance, Jo Ann |
