Thanks all for the input. I will post the results when completed.
The corrugated fasteners are intruding. A few of the pre 50's travel
trailers that we have owned had screen doors held together with these. It
will add to the charm for me.
I'll take a list of the suggested woods to the lumber store to make my
decision based on availability and cost.
Regarding cottonwood: I have only used it for carving spoons and scoops many
of which we have used in our kitchen for several years with good results. I
have also turned a very nice vessel from cottonwood crotch that sits on our
mantel up at our northern Arizona cabin.
Thanks again,
Craig McCormick
The corrugated fasteners will be INTRIGUING, not intruding. he he need more
