the regular type you can buy in the craft store. I was just curious because the package doesn't mention it. Thanks!!

I have it from some very good sources that the "generic" wood used in most dowel rods sold in America is "ramin". They usually come from China. It is used because it is harder and a lighter colour than many other hardwoods. However, over-exploitation has led to all species of ramin being listed as endangered species, particularly in Indonesia and Malaysia. An estimated 90% of ramin in recent international trade is illegally logged.
