I want to 'sticker' some woods that I've accumulated.
Wondering if there any woods to be wary of using because of possible staining or chemical reactions. I will obviously choose something clear and dry, not oily, maybe pine or oak.
I live next to a store that discards alot of wood pallets, some of which I've noticed are nice clean oak or other hardwood. Any warnings?
