Wood question
I just started turning but I like some of the pencils I made and would like to finish them. Some are mahogany and the others are lighter colored softer wood, not quite sure what they are. Is mahogany a good wood for plugs? I guess what I really want to know is what woods are good for pencils and needlefish, and what woods should I stay away from when building plugs? Also can anybody recommend a book about different properties of woods? Sorry to be asking so many questions but there is so much to learn. Thanks in advance guys.
