What's your fav wood?

I purchase lemon oil at the grocery store and it is not cheap, but brings out the color in the wood.  I now have access to all of the poplar i want. I get it in 2 0r 3 X 6 or 8 inches. I would be great if I lived by someone and could trade woods. I like black Walnut, as my favorite wood because of the color and the smooth cutting with a scroll saw.

I like free wood. My grand son works in a saw mill and I get a lot of cured pieces. I get lots of walnut , cherry , and oak, I also get some pre inspected ash. The only problem is that they are green, I have to let them air  dry for a year before I can use them. I just pained down 27 feet  of walnut, mostly to 1/2 ' .When I buy wood I usually but popular.. But Free is best
