Physical Props:Moderately heavy, hard, strong, and tough with moderately high shock resistance, good dimensional stability, and poor decay resistance. Steam-bends very well and is quite elastic. Working Props: Machines fairly well with machine tools although turning and mortising properties are marginal. Glues, screws, and nails satisfactorily. Stains and finishes well, although filling may be required. Uses:Used for furniture, cooperage, baseball bats, boat oars, ladders, chairs, food containers, agricultural implements, tool handles, plywood, and decorative veneer. White ash

  2. European Beech Name:European Beech (Fagus sylvatica) Type:Hardwood. Other Names:Also known as English beech, Carpathian beech, Danish beech, and others according to country of origin.

Physical Props:Very heavy, hard, strong, and stiff with high shock and decay resistance. Steam-bends reasonably well but wood is brittle. Working Props:Works with difficulty due to hardness. - heartwood has severe blunting effect on cutting edges. Requires pre-drilling to nail or screw. Glues satisfactorily and takes an excellent finish. Uses:Used for luxury furniture, carving, and various turned items including knife and tool handles, billiard cues, and brush backs. Also used for combs, piano keys and other musical instrument parts, inlay, and decorative veneer.

  5. American Elm Name: American Elm (Ulmus americana) Type: Hardwood.

Physical Props: Moderately heavy and hard, tough, elastic, difficult to split, and wear resistant. Steam-bends very well. Low decay resistance and moderate dimensional stability. Working Props: Works with some difficulty - tends to dull cutting edges and often produces fuzzy surfaces. Glues, screws and nails satisfactorily. Does not polish easily but otherwise finishes well. Uses : Straight or interlocked grain with a coarse texture. Light brown to brown heartwood, usually with a reddish tinge, and light-colored sapwood.

  6. Also there are three another kind of the Elm and its name is: 1.European Elm Name: European Elm (Ulmus spp.) Type: Hardwood.

Appearance: Typically cross grained with dull brown heartwood (often with reddish tinge) and pale sapwood. Physical Props: Moderately heavy and hard with low stiffness, shock resistance and bending strength. Steam-bends very well. Low decay resistance and medium movement in use. Working Props: Can be difficult to work in that wild grain can tear or cause binding. Glues, screws, nails and finishes satisfactorily. Uses : Used for flooring, farm implements, chair seats, bent parts, ship building, sports equipment, turned items, cabinets, caskets, decorative veneers, paneling and chopping blocks.

  7. 2.Rock Elm Name:Rock Elm (Ulmus thomasi) Type: Hardwood. Other Names:Also known as hard elm, cork elm and hickory elm. Sources:Grows in eastern half of United States and southern Canada. Appearance:Straight or interlocked grain with a coarse texture. Light brown to brown heartwood, usually with a reddish tinge, and light brown to brown sapwood. Physical Props:Heavy, hard, tough, difficult to split, wear and shock resistant. Low decay resistance and moderate dimensional stability. Steam-bends very well. Working Props:Works with some difficulty - hardness tends to dull cutting edges. Finishes reasonably well. Glues, screws and nails satisfactorily. Uses:Uses are similar to those of American and slippery elm but it is better suited to applications requiring hardness and greater strength. This includes farm vehicles, machinery parts, skids, cooperage, wheels and millwork.

  8. 3.Slippery Elm Name:Slippery Elm (Ulmus rubra) Type:Hardwood. Other Names:Also known as red elm, gray elm, soft elm and moose elm.

Poor steam bending rating. Generally cheaper and more abundant than American mahogany. Working Props:Works fairly easily although interlocked, woolly grain can be troublesome. Glues, nails, and screws satisfactorily. Stains and polishes to an excellent finish. Uses:Used for furniture, cabinetry, high class joinery, interior trim, boat building, vehicle bodies, paneling, plywood, and decorative veneers.

Pale pink to dark reddish brown heartwood and yellowish white sapwood. Physical Props: Variable, but generally moderate weight, hardness, and strength. Low stiffness and shock resistance. Very good stability and decay resistance. Moderate steam bending rating. Working Props: Excellent working properties, including cutting, turning, shaping, sanding, and gluing. Finishes easily with a variety of finishes, although filling may be required for ultimate smoothness. Uses: Renowned for high-class cabinetry and furniture. Also used for paneling, turnery, carving, patterns, dies, model making, veneers, flooring, boat building, and musical instruments.

  11. Teak Name:Teak (Tectona grandis) Type:Hardwood. Other Names:Also known as Burma teak, Rangoon teak, moulmein teak, gia thi, jati sak, kyun, mai sak, rosawa, and many other local names.

Yellow brown to dark golden brown heartwood and grayish or white sapwood. Physical Props:Moderately hard and heavy, with low stiffness and shock resistance, moderate bending strength, moderate steam bending, and excellent decay resistance and dimensional stability. Good acid resistance. Working Props:Works reasonbly well with hand or machine tools but silica in wood is tough on cutting edges and machine dust can be an irritant. Good turning and carving properties. Gluing best done on freshly cut surfaces due to oily nature. Pre-drilling recommended for screwing and nailing. Stains and finishes well although natural oils can cause adhesion difficulties. Uses:Has numerous uses including ship building (especially decks), indoor or outdoor furniture, high class joinery, flooring, paneling, plywood, decorative veneers, turnery, carving, chemical tanks and vats.

  12. And I am going to present some pattern from all the types I had wrote about them: This is example outdoors about the harmony between the wood and the glass with some shoring from the layout of the wall

  13. Also outdoors, it suggest the stately of the wood and the effect of the color, the mahogany color with tactile of the Paige color.
