Type of Wood Grain

In this Post I would be explain about Type of Wood Grain. an engineering must know this wood grain before you select the best for you project, here they are Type of Wood Grain :

1. When you cut a board across the grain (perpendicular to the grain direction and the growth rings), you reveal end grain.
2. Cut wood parallel to the grain direction and tangent to the growth rings, and you’ll see plain grain (also called tangential or flat grain).
3. Cut it parallel to the grain direction but through the radius of the growth rings to see quarter grain .(also referred to as radial grain).
4. Both flat grain and quarter grain are sometimes called long grain.
