Hi,
I chose that title because I am making sash windows, which GO UP and down.
Am restoring an 1888 building and have many carpentry issues.
Now I need to know,
and would greatly appreciate learned opinion on,
what timber to use.

I have made a couple from that hardwood they sell in DAR lengths at Bunnings.
It is okay. I was able to use the router on it and table saw etc. But what is the correct wood please?
Cheers,
Dean111

Welcome to the forum.

I might suggest posting this question on the timber section of this forum.
