Best wood for indoor furniture?

Question

Answer 1

Your question is sort of like asking, "What is the best car to get to work, I don't want to spend an arm and a leg?"

Nobody can really answer this question without knowing a little more.  In your case,what style are you making, what do you want it to look like, what are your skills and capabilities, etc?

That said, if you are in US or Canada, most of the domestic hardwoods would work well - red or white oak, ash, maple, cherry, hickory.    SPF would risk not having the structural strength.
