Wood?
I'm curious about what kinds of wood some of you guys use. I bought some cheap wood to practice on, but I was wondering if I am really getting any real practice at all. I was wondering if good wood is going to turn alot different from the pine I'm using now. I find a lot of knots inside the wood, and it seems as though the wood wants to chip a bit. I know lots of you guys use yellow cedar but I was wondering about some different kinds of wood to use. I don't want to get anybody upset if what wood you might use is a secret but, was just wondering. I bought a cheaper chisel set to see what I might need to use the most, I have only used the set maybe 3 times so maybe that is an issue as well. I am going to buy a couple of good chisels, will that maybe make a difference? Any help would be great, Thanks, Jay
