I find it's hardness a benefit more often than a problem, since you can be a little more sloppy in handling it without denting or scratching. I like the look of well finished cherry or walnut better (smoother surface, richer look), but have never done much woodworking with them. -- Warren Montgomery ihnss!warren IH x2494
