Fun facts about red oak:

Red oak was a key material in early North American architecture, wideely used for floors, beams, and cabinetry in early colonial homes because it was strong, plentiful, and easy to work with. Many historic buildings across the U.S. and Canada still showcase original red oak floors that are over 150 years old.
Red oak has uniquely open pores that you can see with the naked eye and form beautiful, striking grain patterns. These pores are also why red oak takes stain extremely well — and why air blown through one end of a red oak board can literally come out the other end!
