    Maple: durable, dense, has resistance to moisture (can be stored outside), attractive pattern

    Walnut: dark toned, has strength and durability. Expensive.

    (notes)

    Wood choice is crucial for making sturdy chairs. Hard maple is used for legs as well as stretchers (occasionally white oak or hickory

    for the stretcher) because it is hard, resist impression, and does not splinter. It also has resistance to abrasion, which is needed for the

    legs for a chair. The seat was usually “scooped out” to make it more comfortable to sit in, which required it to be 2-inches thick. Soft

    wood was usually used for this (pine or poplar)
