Unidentified roundwood logs; species cannot be reliably determined from this photograph. The pale logs could be several ...

Likely figured elm, possibly American elm; other possibilities include figured ash or oak. The image alone cannot confir...

Likely black walnut; alternatives include another walnut species or stained mahogany. (Hardwood.)

Likely weathered cedar; Eastern redcedar is a possibility, but the photo is insufficient to distinguish it from other ce...

Likely spalted or weathered oak; white oak is a plausible candidate, but the image is insufficient to distinguish oak re...

Likely Douglas-fir; western larch or another pale softwood are alternatives. (Softwood)

Likely birch plywood (possibly yellow birch or a birch-faced panel); alder is a less likely alternative. (Engineered pan...

Most likely White Oak; Red Oak is a possible alternative, but the photograph does not show enough end grain for a firm d...

Likely bird’s-eye maple; the small eye-like figure may also be a localized burl or mineral mark. Species-level identific...

Likely reclaimed oak; species cannot be reliably distinguished from the image (white oak or red oak are possibilities). ...

Likely pine, possibly Southern Yellow Pine; the image is insufficient to distinguish the species reliably. (Softwood (co...

Likely Douglas-fir; possibly another softwood such as pine or hemlock (Softwood)

Likely Douglas fir; clear vertical grain and warm reddish-brown color are also consistent with other conifers, such as p...

Likely black walnut; alternatives include butternut or another brown hardwood. (Hardwood)

Likely black walnut; appearance could also fit another dark-colored hardwood. (Hardwood)

Most likely MDF (medium-density fiberboard), rather than solid wood; the adjacent pale board is separate. (Engineered)

Likely black walnut; alternatives include English walnut or another walnut species. The image shows a long-grain face, n...

Likely maple, most consistent with hard/sugar maple; soft maple is a plausible alternative. (Hardwood.)

Likely eastern white pine; other pale pines are possible. (Softwood)

Likely birch (possibly paper birch); alder is a less likely alternative. The image alone does not support a definitive s...

Likely beech; maple is a plausible alternative. (Hardwood)

Likely birch plywood veneer; exact species is not identifiable from this narrow edge view. Alternatives include maple or...

Likely birch (possibly yellow birch); maple is a plausible alternative. (Hardwood)

Likely reclaimed Eastern white pine; Eastern red cedar is a possible alternative, especially for the reddish boards. (So...

Likely Eastern white pine; knotty pine is a plausible alternative. The image shows installed boards, so species identifi...

Likely Southern Yellow Pine; longleaf or loblolly pine are plausible. The image shows stained boards, so species identif...

Likely cedar siding, possibly Western red cedar; alternatives include another weathered softwood such as redwood or pine...

Likely American black walnut (alternative: another walnut species or a walnut-veneered panel). (Hardwood; the broad, uni...

Likely straight-grained oak veneer; white oak is a possibility, but the image does not reliably distinguish it from othe...

Likely sapele; African mahogany is a plausible alternative. The image shows a narrow board with fairly uniform reddish-b...

Likely sapele; African mahogany is a close visual alternative. (Hardwood; tropical African timber.)

Likely Eastern red cedar; juniper or another locally common conifer is possible. The stump image does not show enough de...

Likely oak (Quercus species); the stump image is insufficient to distinguish red oak from white oak or identify a partic...

Most likely basswood (American linden); possibly another pale, diffuse-porous wood such as poplar. (Hardwood)

Most likely Eastern white pine; old, weathered softwood boards. Fir or another pine is possible. (Softwood; appears to b...

Likely oak; White Oak is a plausible candidate, but the image does not support reliable species-level identification. (H...

Unidentified weathered timber; Douglas-fir is a plausible possibility, but species cannot be determined reliably from th...

Most likely Eastern white pine; alternatives include another soft pine or a weathered softwood such as spruce. (Softwood...

Most likely oak firewood; species cannot be determined reliably from this image. Possible alternatives include red oak a...

Most likely Eastern cottonwood (a poplar); the photograph shows bark and leaves, not a cut wood sample. (Hardwood (decid...

Likely white ash; bark alone cannot reliably distinguish it from other mature ash species. (Hardwood (angiosperm))
