Agree that pine sucks, totally good for rough work or objects that don't require perfection, like random furniture and such, but hardwood would have been much closer to spec. I hate buying wood right now, so darn expensive. I literally live in dense Idaho forests, where there are more logging trucks on the road than regular cars, there's a mill in every town and sometimes two, but I can't buy any project wood for decent prices. Grrrr. Makes me a Grinch.
