jds Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Can anybody give me info on how a simple panel would look with Ash rails and styles with a Baltic Birch plywood center? Or, is there a Nother combination of plywood that can be used well with Ash when you were staining it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric. Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 It would look weird. Ash is so open pored and birch is not. Why not use birch or maple for the frame instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodger. Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 You might be able to get away with white oak and ash, if dyed or stained. Makes more sense to use the same species if you are building anew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
estesbubba Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 In addition to the pore differences they will take stain differently and look even worse together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
