I've built a couple of pieces of furniture over the last 2-3 years at my wifes request.
I make it a point to show how expensive the lumber is.
Brother has a planer he no longer uses I can get cheap.
We have oak, hickory, beech, walnut, poplar, cherry, cedar and a little pine at our disposal.
If we stay where we are, I'll have one some day.
