heppnerguy Posted September 26, 2015 Report Share Posted September 26, 2015 (edited) My daughter also asked me to do a name for the birthday party she was attending today so I found a piece of wood in one of my wood barrels and decided to use it because it has been hanging around here for a long time and thought it was about time I get it out of here. I have no idea what kind of wood it is but it is very hard and heavy. It had a green color until I sanded it, then it turned brown once more. Anyone know the species of this wood? Dickheppnerguy can not figure out how to rotate my photo. sorry. It might be OK for Roly as he is most likely laying on the ground, guarding his beer anyhow Edited September 26, 2015 by heppnerguy bobscroll, oneleggimp, WayneMahler and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppnerguy Posted September 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2015 Hickory maybe. Hard to tell from a picture. I have never knowingly had any Hickory and it very well could be.. after sitting for a year or two it looked greenish.. when i sanded it , it turned brown. Is that a characteristic of Hickory?

Is that a characteristic of Hickory? Dick heppnerguy Hickory does leach some color between a brown and green especially if it was not kiln dried. Hickory is a very heavy very very hard would but takes a beautiful finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
