Hi all, I am new to this and would like to know what types of wood I should use? Since I have pine (1X4 stock) I figured I could use that but the finish was terrible. I am using a 1/4" v-bit HobbyCNC and making light passes but it seems to hog the material. Now I figure it is mostly due to the cheap wood. I would like to make a name plate sign for my daughter's bedroom. What wood should I use? I am going to be practicing a lot so obviously no exotics. LOL Thanks a lot.
