I like to have a balanced view of where I live. From what I see, Canada is marketed as a utopia of some sort to many, who upon living here for a while soon realize differently.
You'll never be able to send it back home in a box, lol, too big, too expensive and then there's importation restrictions to check. Pun check noted. 🤣 My mallet for carving large work has "Wood Is Good" branded on it. I'm sure they mean carving wood.
Nice tag 🤣
Sounds like propaganda from the Socialist Party!
Hmm... Of course I could. If I just the get the cuts I need. How would stuff like Red Cedar get shipped all over the world when it's an exclusively North American wood. I'm not going to send a tree trunk overseas. That would be funny, but beyond my budget! 🤣
I try. 🤣
That I can tell. Ha, ha, ha. I have to deal with this stuff because it's all over the place! 🤣
Yeah, I know, but it doesn't help that it's one of the best materials to make sound boards. And there's no other way of getting it than buying it or importing it. There's no say to source it locally. And well, the other woods we have are fine for other things. But we can't even produce Spruce because of the climate. And I get the whole bureaucracy of shipping stuff is hard work.
Ha, ha, ha. That cedar doesn't. I know it isn't a cedar at old nor is it red. Weird name for a wood. We have species of stuff but they are tropical woods. Some of them are beautiful, but the best woods for the job are usually imported.
Not all woods. And well, true cedar is the native thing of Lebanon. Aside from that most of the things we call cedar is actually cedrala. We have some interesting woods for carvings as well. And imported woods are used for concert-type instruments. For the rest, local woods do wonders.
