I like willow, cherry and rosewood, but I don't buy them because that's not enviromentally sound. I only buy them if they are used.

You're just an oppressor of Corkers. They deserve the same rights as cedar.

Cedear smells nice, its easy to break and burns really well. For looks I'd go with cherry.

I like the grain found in ligher woods, like poplar and maple, but for smell, the heartwood of hickory can't be beat imho.

Eut, I'm glad you approve. But you didn't answer the question. What wood do you like the most?

NB in Australia, so Northern Hemisphere woods not as readily available

I really like the smell and feel of Eucalypt hardwoods, but it is a bastard to work with (hard, blunts tools, often has knots)
Bamboo smells very exotic and is fun, if not a little brittle, to work with
For general purposes, radiata pine goes ok.
For cheap shit - go MDF (medium density fibreboard) ;)

I'm suprised no one has said Morning Wood yet.
