I think this is also a very useful one, a lot of relevant information for woodworking (Janka, shrinkage, weight,...)

That's the one I always use.

It's great to have a few sources, though.

Thanks for posting the links, @calabrese55 .

'The Wood Database' link is in the library.

I also just added the 'List of Woods - WIKI' site.

Both are in the 'References' tab.

Thanks for the tips!

@Wayne, I was meaning to post this on figuring, too. https://thepatriotwoodwiki.org/Grains-and-Figures-in-Wood
There's a lot more on the site, but the grain/figuring info is really useful.
