No, definitely not morning wood, I think 36" for morning wood would be stretching it..literally...

They guy said he thinks its oak or maple, was just hoping one of you "queer eye for the wood guy" types would be able to recognize it

Ya, I was hoping Mr. M would know..althought its really irrelevant at this point as I already agreed to buy it (talked him down to $50)

Starting a new project this weekend, the speed bag platform of the future...

I'm definitely not "queer eye for the wood guy", but my guess is red or white oak, but it's hard to tell without seeing the grain.

I can't be sure, but by the look, shape and thickness It is the kind of wood that would be awesome with a speed bag bouncing off it.

hmmm, what a novel idea, Mr. Kahn...you practically read my mind...

I am trying to build a ceiling-mounted, height-adjustable, 360 degree-accessible platform as inexpensive as possible...

this appears to be an excellent choice.

I always wanted a 360 movement. Just to do punching step-throughs and cross overs.
