Wood combinations- what say you?
Recently, I've noticed some comments about what woods should not go together- *notably Walnut and Cherry...
My question today is, what combinations of wood go well together?
I'll start with Walnut and Maple. I've also use Cherry and Maple together and it seems to work.
File that under "anything goes well with white" advice you got from your mother... ;)
I expect to see a long list of all kinds of wood, so please don't disappoint...:p
*Sorry Mr. Keeton, I'll never do it again, I promise! :D
Not just what looks good today
I hadn't even considered what you mention John, the change in hues the wood will go thru as it ages.
Good point. Are there any decent references to show typical changes (now + future), beyond descriptions and personal experiences? I know I've heard of purple heart losing alot of it's color, as with the beautiful red streaks inside box elder that I do really like.
Just more stuff to fill the body of knowledge in working with wood. Hmmmph, and I thought it was just about making chips!;)
