I have finally found a white wood that I love and its American Rock Maple. I stopped using white or whiteish wood a long time ago because after oiling etc. it never looked the way I wanted it too but the Maple is great. Thanks America.

Hi Marg.... Finally someone that just can not get a white wood like the Baltic Birch to look good. I have given up on that species for say Christmas Ornaments. I just finished cuting stack of 4 using Maple 1/8 Ply. They look Great. Used a combo of BLO and spirits half n half (Dans mixture) and the grain looks great and there is even a slight shine. Later.... Danny :+}

Gene I'm in Australia and I got it from TheWoodsmith.com.au So this probably does not help you. LOl

Hey Marg,
I get my timber from J&C Thin Timbers in Qld, they cater for the thicknesses a scroller needs. They have Rock Maple too, so I might order a piece and give it a try.

Yeah they do .. the more you order, the postage seems to work out cheaper.
I'll send you the details via email
