Dear Oleg
You may have explained before, but I would love to know what types of wood you use, they are really beautiful
Hi, I mostly use pear, I prefer the more pinky option (but I played a little with the color on the upperdeck hull inner planking to make some contract between spirketting, clamp and quickstuff that have different thickness). For the black I use the black hornbeam, and on the decks here for the first time I put the white hornbeam. It's actually quite different from the black hornbeam in terms of structure: they are both firm, but the white hornbeam is easily piling (or napping, of fluffing - not sure which English word is correct) at the edges, while the black hornbeam is more like a plastic.
For decorations I use boxwood. Or it's castello. I guess it's a whole holywar as to how correctly to call these sorts of wood - what is castello and what is boxwood... in any case what I use now is not what I would like to use. I have a couple of small examples of what I was told was a "boxwood", and it is more firm, more yellow and more looking like a polished stone, in other words more preferable to me, compared to what I use now and what was also sold to me as a "boxwood" (I tried several sellers and they all sent me the same wood different from those small examples I still keep as my perfection example

). It's also good, but not so yellow and not so nice-looking. Maybe what I have as examples is some sort of european boxwood, but for now I can't find anyone who is selling planks/sheets from it.
