Re: Bed Wood

Other than appearance, are there any advantages to one kind of wood over another? I have a little HF sawmill and access to red oak, white oak, gum and pine. I even have an Ash blow down that's only about 50 yards from my mill. I know it'll be time consuming and I'll probably regret it before I get finished but I plan on trying to make my own bed wood when I get around to my '59. So far I've only cut up red oak for trim for my house but I have enough experience with it to know that you throw away a lot more than you keep out of a log.
