Hi all,

The Peninsula Wood Turners Guild used to have a very useful table listing these on their website, but no longer.

By permission, I can email you a copy if you PM me an email address.

The table lists:

texture
colour
density
turning quality
other data such as irritation potential and turning tips inc tool set up

Your email address will be deleted after replying.

Cheers.

Are you a member of the guild?
I tried to join but gave up after getting the run around from the secretary, who never bothered to send me an application, and in any case told me that I would have to be approved by the board or something.

Do you know of other clubs in the area?

Thanks
Roger

No I'm not.

This may help but I'm not sure it's complete....

Suggest you start a new thread with the query.
