I'm thinking of having Danny (Wai's) build me a stand and canopy out of Birch, anyone know if he does good work?, before I decide I asked him to get me some pictures cause I'm not really sure if I've ever seen one built from birch, I don't think there is much grain in birch so with just a lacquer over it I'm wondering if it would look kinda dull.

Anyone have pictures of a birch stand?

birch is a really nice wood, a tight grain, but very silvery. i would still look to see pics cuz i'm guessing its gonna cost you, but i would take birch over any softwood and probably over oak too.

I think birch would look beautiful.. if you look at my stand MY STAND (http://members.shaw.ca/stircrazy/finnished.jpg)
the door pannels on mine are maple but it is very simuler to birch in colour and look (grains are a little wider) if I wouldent have gotten such a deal on the doors I was going to make my own out of birch.
