  • Maple
    • Hard Maple is used for staining while Soft Maple would be used for painting or colored lacquer. Hard Maple is dense and light in color.
  • Alder (Rustic or Select)
    • Alder is characterized by its straight grain and even texture. It has a reddish brown color that often looks similar to Cherry. Though it dents relatively easy, it offers a stable surface.
