@workshop_companion: How do you distinguish red oak from white oak? Sometimes it’s hard to tell, especially when working with old wood such as the materials in antique furniture.

The white oaks have rounded lobes on the leaves and the red oaks have sharp pointy lobes.

I’ve been thinking about using exotic woods to make a couple of pool cues. I’m looking for a really dense and strong wood to use as a break/jump cue. It doesn’t need to have any flex, it just needs to

would not say pin oak is the same as red oak. Pin oak rots way faster
