Wood ID Chart

[JAB1]

Does anyone know of a pen blank/ wood ID chart? I need something to keep around the shop to ID woods. I have some pen blanks that were given to me and I have no IDea of what the woods are.

I have some websites that I could go to, but would like to have a chart for the wall. [?]

I have added the link to the Hobbit House wood pictures to the IAP library General Reference section. Should be easier to find there for folks who ask the same question in the future.

After a while of using each type of wood, you wont need a chart. My wife still gets steamed when I can tell her the name of any of the woods in the shop but forget one of her family memebers birthday.

there is a seller on EBAY who carries a wood ID poster...search "WOOD ID POSTER"...about $20 if my memory is working!
