Hewwo,
I've been putting feelers out about wood and nothing comes back to me. I tried a coffin making company, a kitchen company and a flooring company. No responses. I've noticed how some drawer units that are veneered can have wooden carcasses on the draws, so may have to demolish to use - though would have no idea what wood it is.
I see B&Q have some scaffolding planks that have been pressure treated, made from Spruce. Would the pressure treating make it unusable?
Despite lots of research, still can't find any wood - and can't afford to buy the usual Mahogany, Walnut panels from Hobbies.
Frustrating I know B n Q have lots of pine on offer, but it's not really a favourite. Can't afford that either at the mo, lol so wondered if you guys had any canny ideas....
Thank you Also, what's a good finish for Spruce? I used a panel from Hobbies that I bought ages ago and crafted a Christian Fish with the name Jesus in the middle for a friend. The grain is absolutely beautiful, makes it look more like a fish than it is I just need a finish to highlight it's amazing-ness.
Thanks you
