Kind of fun, although far too many choices of materials to choose from.
20 species of pine, 17 species of oak, etc.

Does anybody know if Home Depot Melamine panels are made from M1, M2 or M3 particle board? The Sagulator wants to know. ;-)

wikipedia says it's a hardwood, but it looks pretty soft to me.

"Hardwood" doesn't describe a wood's physical properties, rather a
comment on the tree's sexual orientation. ;-)

Softwood ~ conifer. Hardwood /= Softwood.
