Ramin is crap don't waste your money or time. Like I said plenty of places online that sell hardwood dowels such as birch maple etc. And I don't believe it's a FSC certified wood-they rape the bazoons out of the forests for the stuff....very destructive. What isn't from overseas though. Rape and pillage anything they can all for the $$.
Last I checeked HD is sellin FSC certified wood. Mostly after catching crap for not dooing it. I'm pretty sure the dowels are Eucalytus(sp). They aren't the best. But they turn well and are satifactory if sealed well. I used them when I started and they worked well. I sealed w/thinned epoxy and had zero adhesion/splitting issues.
