I was wondering if anyone owned this cd, and if so what they thought of it.

I have it, but don't know where it is - Aha. It is pretty good and I still
think it was worth what I paid, but i don't use it much. I have three books
which serve a similar function and prefer to use them as I can haul them
out to the shop or to a comfortable chair. But searching is a Plus.

Hello Steven, (Great name by the way! :-)

I have owned this CD for several years and use it occasionally. It could use
an updated user interface, as the one it has (my version anyway) is very
basic and lacks a cutting edge GUI.

I have found that many of the timbers I wanted information on were not in
the database, however, most of them were there. If you Google your timber
species, you may be able to find out the information you need.

There are numerous sites on the internet, some maintained by colleges that
have species information, as well as other sites offering information that
can be drilled down for specific data needed. Good luck to you and best
wishes to you in all of your woodturning endeavours!
