Yep, and any scraps you can find that are free.
Plywood is good too and much more cooperative that thick timbers.Stupidity kills. Absolute stupidity kills absolutely.

What Iain said. Try to use as many different types of wood/thickness/blade combinations to see what works and what doesn't, before you try expensive stuff.

Sean,
If you use plywood try Interior Hoop Pine. This ply has two good side and the glue line between the plies is clear.A 2400mm x 4800mm sheet is about $80.00
