Few years back I built my router table with some pre-finished veneer ply. I can't remember if it's birch or maple?
Please let me know what you think it is.
Thanks,
Mike

My guess is birch.
My guess is Maple.

My guess is Does it really matter?
Looks exactly like some birch ply that I just bought.

I vote birch. As for matching, seems to me the only way to find out is empirically, regardless of what it's made of.
I was out Voted 5 to1. Darn

I'll give you half a vote, Andrew. I say it's maple or birch.
Aww thanks Yonak, I owe you one Daniel Webster cigar for that 1/2 vote.

I'd say birch, without full confidence. Maple and birch are similar enough looking, that my cabinetmaker's bench has 4 maple legs and one birch one (not intentional). I didn't notice for a few months after I made it; In fact I only noticed because the chatoyance wasn't quite right for maple.
I would say birch as well.
Hey Andrew - just curious - your bench has 5 legs? Also - I am not familiar with the term "Chatoyance". Would you 'splain for me? I am guessing it is something to do with indirect light.
BTW - I have a bunch of Maple ply that looks just like that sample. I am going with Maple.
Thanks Andrew
