""There is a kind of beauty in imperfection." This quote from cinematographer Conrad Hall can apply to easy woodworking. As with anything else, you will rarely find perfection in wood. Some common wood defects that you should be aware of and know how to work around are mold-damaged wood, bows in the wood, splits or cracks, loose dark knots, and excessive sap residue.
You may find that some wood you have to work with has an unwanted bluish gray tinge. This is commonly found in woods such as pine, sycamore, and holly. This mold damage is caused by storage in an area that is too warm or not well ventilated. You can solve this problem by using the wood on a part of the project where it will not be seen or by staining the wood darkly.
