Let’s do this! This video walks you through the differences that would matter to a woodworker when you’re choosing a wood for your project and you’re just sick of hearing the word “OAK” and not knowing what the heck that means.

Fact Check: 3:14 USS Constitution‘s hull is made of both white oak and live oak. While the ship’s ability to take a pounding of cannonball fire isn’t because of the white oak alone. Our point remains the same, though, that white oak is strong, durable, and a good choice for projects that will be exposed to water or when toughness is important to you. Thanks for your time. 👍
