Types of Timber |
|
Redwood Pine |
|
Similar to Pine found in most Builders Merchants but of higher quality (around 90% knot free). |
|
(Not to be confused with the inferior white wood found in most DIY stores and used by most low cost Staircase makers) |
|
Suitable for Painting or Staining. |
|
If Waxing with no other finish, seal first with Sanding Sealer, flat down with fine Glasspaper and then Wax. |
|
Yellow Pine |
|
Although a Pine this Timber is harder and heavier than Mahogany with virtually no knots and finishes well with Oil or Varnish |
|
As with Redwood Pine If Waxing with no other finish, seal first with Sanding Sealer, flat down with fine Glasspaper and then Wax. |
|
Another high quality Pine that finishes excellent with Oil but Varnish tends to lessen the grain and colour |
|
Again if Waxing with no other finish, seal first with Sanding Sealer, flat down with fine Glasspaper and then Wax. |
