wood ID through end grain

Recommended Posts

It occurred to me that some of you may have never used my site for wood ID. Here's a smattering of the 2,700+ end grain pics from the anatomy pages. This should show pretty clearly why I keep telling everyone that the end grain can be so useful in doing wood ID:

 

These are all 1/4" x 1/4" cross sections and they show up a bit bigger than this on the site

what is the zoom factor on these shots? is what you would see threw a 10 power loupe?

As I said, they are 1/4" x 1/4". to figure the zoom factor you have to take your screen resolution into account. On my system they are 12X but as I also said, they show up here smaller than the originals. You can see them at full size at:

Since on that forum they show up full size. And yes, they're pretty much what you see w/ a 10X loupe.
