Why not use Aspen instead? It's a little bit cheaper than Popular andAspen may be nearly impossible to find in the East.
clearer.
I get my Aspen from Menard's. Each board is individually sealed in plastic
wrap. All the boards I have bought have be straight as an arrow. I use it
for face frames and have never had a problem with it. Check it out when you
go to Menard's.
What's Menard's? You won't find it in this area of Virginia. I'm
reasonably sure Woodcraft can order it in for you at one of its
stores, but...heh, boy, the price. Tulip poplar sells for about $1.75-
$2.50 a bf here (not in Lowe's or HD), so plastic wrapped boards from
elsewhere aren't going to go over big, particularly since tulip poplar
is available in straight, wide knot free boards that almost never cup
or warp.
