Physical Properties:

Hardness:  1510

Working Properties:

Red oak machines well, nailing and screwing are good although pre-boring is recommended, and it can be stained to a good finish. It can be stained with a wide range of finish tones. It dries slowly.

Where it Grows:

Alder Crown Molding

D6100KAL - 11/16 x 3-7/16 - Knotty Alder Crown Moulding

D6300AL - 3/4 x 3-1/2 - Alder Crown Moulding

Red alder, a relative of birch, is almost white when freshly cut but quickly changes on exposure to air, becoming light brown with a yellow or reddish tinge. Heartwood is formed only in trees of advanced age and there is no visible boundary between sap and heartwood. The wood is fairly straight-grained with a uniform texture.


Physical Properties:

Hardness:  590

Working Properties

Red alder machines well and is excellent for turning. It nails, screws and glues well, and can be sanded, painted, or stained to a good finish. When stained, it blends with walnut, mahogany or cherry. It dries easily with little degrade and has good dimensional stability after drying.

Where it Grows:

Pacific Northwest

Cherry Crown Molding

D6300CH - 3/4 x 3-1/2 - Cherry Crown Moulding

D6090CH - 9/16 x 2-1/4 - Cherry Crown Moulding

D6100CH - 11/16 x 3-7/16 - Cherry Crown Moulding

The heartwood of cherry varies from rich red to reddish brown and will darken with age and on exposure to light. In contrast, the sapwood is creamy white. The wood has a fine uniform, straight grain, satiny, smooth texture, and may naturally contain brown pith flecks and small gum pockets.

Where it Grows

Throughout Midwestern and Eastern U.S. Main commercial areas: Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia and New York.

Working Properties
Cherry is easy to machine, nails and glues well and when sanded and stained, it produces an excellent smooth finish. It dries fairly quickly with moderately high shrinkage, but is dimensionally stable after kiln-drying.

Physical Properties
Hardness: 1,470


Hickory Crown Molding

D6300HICK - 3/4 x 3-1/2 - Hickory Crown Moulding

The hickories are an important group within the Eastern hardwood forests. Botanically they are split into two groups; the true hickories, and the pecan hickories (fruit bearing). The wood is virtually the same for both and is usually sold together. Hickory is the hardest, heaviest and strongest American wood. The sapwood of hickory is white, tinged with inconspicuous fine brown lines while the heartwood is pale to reddish brown. Both are coarse-textured and the grain is fine, usually straight but can be wavy or irregular.

Working Properties
The heaviest of American hardwoods, the hickories can be difficult to machine and glue, and are very hard to work with hand tools, so care is needed. They hold nails and screws well, but there is a tendency to split so pre-boring is advised. The wood can be sanded to a good finish. The grain pattern welcomes a full range of medium-to-dark finishes and bleaching treatments. It can be difficult to dry and has high shrinkage.

Physical Properties

Hardness: 1,820

 
Where it Grows

Eastern U.S., principal commercial areas: Central and Southern states.


Hard Maple Crown Molding

D6100M - 11/16 x 3-7/16 - Hard Maple Crown Moulding

D6300M - 3/4 x 3-1/2 - Hard Maple Crown Moulding

D6090M - 9/16 x 2-1/4 - Hard Maple Crown Moulding

The sapwood is creamy white with a slight reddish brown tinge and the heartwood varies from light to dark reddish brown. The amount of darker brown heartwood can vary significantly according to growing region. Both sapwood and heartwood can contain pith fleck. The wood has a close fine, uniform texture and is generally straight-grained, but it can also occur as "curly," "fiddleback," and "birds-eye" figure.

Working Properties
Hard maple dries slowly with high shrinkage, so it can be susceptible to movement in performance. Pre-boring is recommended when nailing and screwing. With care it machines well, turns well, glues satisfactorily, and can be stained to an outstanding finish. Polishes well and is suitable for enamel finishes and brown tones.

Physical Properties

Hardness:  1,450

Where it Grows
Eastern U.S., principally Mid-Atlantic and Lake states.
