[crw-talk] Honey dippers

I agree with Rich. Red oak is rather poor for delicate items. RO requires very very sharp tools to cut the dipper grooves.  Poplar or even maple would be a better choice.     -raasch

That looks like red oak. Not my favorite wood to turn, but I think it would be OK for your honey dippers.

Can two boards be glued together to turn honey dippers?  I came across lots of these oak cut offs.
