Most of my work has been done using maple, walnut, mahogany, mesquite and cedar.
For my next solid segment project I would like to introduce some different color.
I am looking at using some Padauk, but read that it can "bleed" color into the lighter color wood next to it. Read that Bloodwood can do the same.
What are some suggestions for wood (that is not super expensive) that has good color
(red, black, orange, yellow).
When using Padauk or Bloodwood, how did you prevent the bleeding or contamination of color into the lighter segments.
Thanks in advance.
