Ash

European ash (Fraxinus excelsior) is a hardwood species that is native to Europe and parts of Asia. It is widely used in furniture making, flooring, tool handles, sports equipment, and decorative applications. Here are some characteristics of European ash wood:

Color: The heartwood of European ash is light brown to beige, sometimes with a reddish or yellowish tint. The sapwood is usually lighter in color and can be up to 4 inches wide.

Grain: European ash has a straight and uniform grain, with a pronounced growth ring pattern. The texture is medium to coarse, with a distinctive flaky pattern that gives the wood a unique look.

Density: European ash is a medium-density hardwood, with an average density of about 41 pounds per cubic foot (660 kg/m3). This density makes it strong and durable, but also relatively lightweight compared to other hardwoods.

Durability: European ash is moderately durable, with good resistance to decay and insect attack. It is also relatively resistant to shock and bending, making it a popular choice for tool handles and sports equipment.

Workability: European ash is easy to work with, with good machining and finishing properties. It sands and finishes well, and takes stains and finishes evenly.

Uses: European ash is used for a wide range of applications, including flooring, cabinetry, furniture, veneer, and decorative items such as paneling and moldings. Its strength and shock resistance also make it a popular choice for tool handles, sports equipment, and other applications that require durability and flexibility.

Overall, European ash is a versatile and attractive wood species that offers a unique flaky pattern, strength, and durability.
