In Response To: Re: Basswood? (Paul G. Jacobson)

: There used to be a site on the internet that had specs on various hardwoods,
: but the last time I searched for it I got to somewhere quite different
: than I expected. "Hardwood" apparently has a secondary meaning.

Hmmm.... No Comment on that one! ;-) Here is a site I know of. I'm not sure how reliable it is though, as it lists purple heart as "steam bends moderately well".
