@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.

Fortunately there’s a simple test you can do. -- By the way check out our new webpages for Nick's tool recommendations, books, & plans.

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
