The wood is poplar; the type of wood is listed in text in one of the three images. The poplars are a very diverse group of trees, but but they grow beautiful, tulip-like flowers. It IS in the hardwood group, but it's still quite a soft wood; poplar is harder than pine, but three times softer than something like oak. It's a decent looking wood, with nice fine grain, but it's mostly considered a "utility" wood - the kind of thing you'd use to build pallets. But, poplar is also super economical, so it get used on economy furniture, so that you can make something super affordable but still be able to make all-wood furniture.

I think it is white birch. Whatever the material, the bed was relatively easy to put together and has stood up well in the two years that we have had it.We also bought the storage drawers for underneath and we put extra bedding in them - that was a good investment.Also we bought the optional head board. I needed help lining up the holes so I could screw the bed together. Again, that was a good investment.Hope this helps - I would buy this bed again.

I'm not sure if it is pine. It may be oak or another wood. It is extremely durable and fashionable for a kids room, though. My niece loves hers!

pressed wood. It is nice wood and should last a long time if never gets wet. worth the price it is beautiful. takes a little bit to put together but not bad if spaced out the directions are fairly easy. good luck

You can find the lumber at Lowe's or any other place that sells the wood. Lowe's cut the wood to the proper lengths for me. The amount of wood and lengths are in the front part of the directions on how to put it together. It tells you the screws and stuff you need to purchase also.Have fun.

I don't like the compressed wood, and use chunks. They are awesome, though some may be cut a little too large, so keep a hand axe handy. Here are links to four woods on Amazon: Weber 17005 Apple Wood Chunks, 5-PoundWeber 17003 Pecan Wood Chunks, 5-PoundWeber 17056 Hickory Wood Chunks, 5-PoundWeber 17007 Cherry Wood Chunks, 5-Pound

I'm pretty sure it's Maple. But Oak and Maple are generally similar wood styles as far as I am concerned.

I'm not sure what kind of wood but it's dense and light colored. It might be hickory.

Dear Mrs. Taylor You can glue the pieces together then you may do the priming if you desire. Priming can keep the wood look nicer and last longer. Sincerely, Dean Haddad

My DeWalt plate joiner came with a very useful manual. Practice, practice, practice on scrap lumber to more fully understand how to use this tool and you will love the results!!!

I'm sorry, I don't remember but I don't think it was wood as this would not be in line with the price. It was a gift for my daughter's friend so I never had it in my possession for long.

There is no wood with the kit that we bought. It is just the hardware and instructions to build it and you go and purchase whatever wood you like.

I don't know what kind of wood it is, but is very solid and sturdy. You could contact the maker. I have used it for years and it still looks and works great.

Boy, that could be a tough one - if you haven't already, try contacting the manufacturer. If that doesn't work (and I bet it won't) you might try finding a lumber store that caters to woodworkers and sells nice wood. Any hardwood (oak, mahogany, teak) will probably work. Problem will be that the standard sizes they sell probably won't match the slat. Most stores like that will cut the wood for you - length is not problem and maybe even width (they would need to cut a long strip off one side, called "ripping") however if the thickness isn't right they would need to plane it down and that might be more difficult. Good luck. Boy, that could be a tough one - if you haven't already, try contacting the manufacturer.

I'm really not sure what kind of wood, I believe engineered wood. I had to put it together by myself and I found this somewhat challenging. Overall I have been very happy with this. I keep it set up with a fax machine and a telephone on it.

I learnt with a teacher so I wouldn't really know what's best for self-study, but there are some great guides on Youtube that start from the very basics! Give it a search! Also David Finckel's Cello talks are quite interesting too - not necessarily for absolute beginners though :)

Hi, I am an owner of a furniture restoration company and I have worked with a lot of different types of woods and finishes. As far as pine is concerned, truthfully you never wil truly know what you are going to get when you finish it. I have always found that I would get different shades if yellowing when a finish is applied to natural pine. Some are this amber or yellowing finishes are desirable. As far as the birchwood Casey product. The is a very good finish that is above average for its application and above average for desired finish . But, yes if it is applied to pine it will yellow out. But, this is the woods reaction to finish. I have not witnessed a yellowing because of age with birchwood Casey products. Further, If it is your desire to use an economical type of wood, that has a similar but tighter grain, I would recommend you check out hemlock
